**3.3 Risk factors for PTSD after cesarean delivery**

According to the univariate regression analyses with dependent variable as the presence of postpartum PTSD (**Table 4**) presented a positive association between psychiatric history, inclusion in NICU, EMCS, and number of past traumatic events with the likelihood of PTSD diagnosis. Women, who breastfed, those with full-term labor, and those who reported having support from their partner, had lower likelihood of having postpartum PTSD. In **Table 4**, multiple analyses reveal that the type of cesarean delivery is independently linked with postpartum PTSD after cesarean delivery.
