”Inte ens preventivmedel handlar om sex" : En fenomenologisk studie om sexologisk stöttning efter en vaginal förlossning. / “Not even contraceptives are about sex" : A phenomenological study of sexological support after vaginal childbirth

Bäckström, Sara January 2023 (has links)
Since 2015, the Swedish government has invested more money in the post-partum care to make it more accessible. The number of Swedish qualitative studies, which highlight women's experiences of sexological support after childbirth since 2015, is limited. This means that we do not know how adequate the government's investments have been in terms of patients' access to sexological support after childbirth. The purpose of the study is to gain an increased understanding of what sexological support, from healthcare, people feel they need after childbirth. The author has conducted ten qualitative semi-structured interviews with respondents who had a vaginal birth in the last two years. Analyzed through Merleau-Ponty's (1945/2006) and Ahmed's (2014) phenomenological theories the results show that the respondents' sexual health was affected by the interaction of the changes in their physical body and life situation. These aspects were also influenced by their partner and the post-partum care. During the follow-up, several respondents felt that their midwife focused too much on their physical body instead of changes related to their sexual health. Participants expressed a need for more information and confirmation regarding the physical, psychological, and social changes that affected their sexual health. The participants also wished to have more sexological support for their partner. This result indicates that the government's investment in the post-partum care has not been sufficient in terms of sexual health after childbirth, which means that parts of this care remain unavailable. Key words: childbirth, partner, post-partum, postnatal care, sexual health, sexual function, sexual satisfaction, sexological support.
