Abstract
Pain and discomfort are unique features of parturition. In fact, labor pain is the result of complex and subjective interactions between physical, psychological, environmental and supportive factors, which differ from one woman to another. A proper understanding of factors involved in labor pain paves the way for women`s higher adaptability to pain and proper use of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions to relieve pain. In this descriptive-analytical study 300 primiparous and 300 multiparous women, who had vaginal deliveries, were randomly selected and interviewed. The data was collected by questionnaire and the intensity of pain was determined using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Data was analyzed using Student`s t-test, Pearson`s and Spearman`s correlation and regression Analysis. The results indicated that physical and environmental factors influence the intensity of delivery pain in primiparous women and physical, psychological, environmental and supportive factors influence the same process in multiparous women.
