So they suggest not to give the moms pain pills post partum
(usually we give them for Caesarian section or if they have a large episiotomy, not to everyone.) but here the article claims the risk was the same in both groups.
but how big is the risk?
The incidence of persistent opioid use during the year following delivery was low overall -- at less than 1 percent -- and was higher among women with cesarean versus vaginal delivery.
so let the women suffer.
Actually, what might be happening is that women who are depressed find their depression is helped by these pills. the wife of Senator McCain would be a big example.
However the study only included those who hadn't taken narcotics in the past 180 days. Did they check the percentage of women who took other drugs such as marijuana or tranquillizers?
