Urinary incontinence is a common gynecological urinary disorder. Spontaneous vaginal delivery (SVD) may increase the risk of postpartum stress incontinence compared to cesarean section (CS). This study aims to analyze the difference in urinary incontinence on the second and seventh postpartum days in patients with SVD and CS to determine the prevalence and relationship between risk factors and postpartum urinary incontinence occurrence. This study is an analytical observational study with a case-control design. The study sample consists of postpartum patients at Adam Malik General Hospital and affiliated hospitals who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Questionnaire for Urinary Incontinence Diagnosis/QUID and cough test were used to identify stress incontinence on the second and seventh postpartum days. Our results showed that on the second postpartum day, 25 patients with SVD (67.6%) and 13 patients with CS (43.2%) were found to have stress incontinence. Meanwhile, on the seventh postpartum day, 18 patients with SVD (51.4%) and 1 patient with CS (2.7%) were found to have stress urinary incontinence. The statistical analysis showed a significant difference in the occurrence of stress incontinence based on QUID assessment between the SVD and CS groups on the seventh postpartum day (p = 0.000), while no significant difference was found in the results of the cough test between the SVD and CS groups (p = 0.243). These findings indicate that SVD is identified as a risk factor for stress urinary incontinence, particularly on the seventh day postpartum.
