Abstract

Her kadın azda olsa doğum ile ilgili korku yaşar. Tokofobi şiddetli doğum
korkusu olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Nulliparlar ile multiparlar
karşılaştırıldığında nulliparlar daha fazla doğum korkusu yaşamakta ve doğum
korkusu daha şiddetli olmaktadır. Patolojik doğum korkusu olan kadınların
%6-10’unu tokofobi ile baş etmektedir. Tokofobi tedavisinde gevşeme
egzersizler, ağrı yönetimi, bilişsel davranışçı yaklaşım, hipnoz  gibi yöntemler kullanılabilir.
Gebelerin doğum süreci ile ilgili
korkuları belirlenmeli ve doğum komplikasyonlarını azaltmak için doğum korkusu
tedavi edilmelidir.

A rarely known topic ‘tocophobia’: a case report

Abstract

Every
woman has little fear of birth. Tocophobia is defined as severe fear of birth.
Compared to multiparous and nulliparous, nulliparous fear of birth is more
severe and fear of birth is more severe. 6-10% of women with pathological birth
fear are coping with tocophobia. Relaxation exercises, pain management,
cognitive behavioral approach and hypnosis can be used in the treatment. Fears
of the pregnant women about the birth process should be identified and fear of
birth should be treated to reduce the complications of birth.
