Abstract

Postpartum fatigue significantly impacts maternal recovery, psychological well-being, and lactation. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of lemon aromatherapy, a non-pharmacological intervention containing sedative linalool, in reducing fatigue levels among postpartum women. Methods: A quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was conducted at Puskesmas Sleman. Fifteen postpartum mothers were recruited via purposive sampling. Fatigue levels were assessed using the Postpartum Fatigue Scale (PFS) consisting of 30 items. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: All respondents initially experienced moderate fatigue. Post-intervention analysis revealed a statistically significant reduction in fatigue levels (p=0.010), with an improvement in clinical presentation observed in the study group. Conclusion: Lemon aromatherapy is effective in reducing postpartum fatigue. It is recommended as an accessible and safe complementary therapy to support maternal recovery.
