Brief Summary: Labor pain causes women to be afraid of vaginal delivery and to be anxious about delivery and therefore to prefer cesarean delivery (Ali Alahmari et al., 2020). The World Health Organization (WHO) has set the safe cesarean section rate for countries at 15% (World Health Organization, 2015). However, many countries are well above this rate (Betran et al., 2021). An important factor in the preference for cesarean deliveries is the fear of vaginal delivery (Zhao et al., 2021). Vaginal delivery with epidural anesthesia in primiparous women is a very good opportunity to prevent the preference of cesarean deliveries due to fear of vaginal delivery. Unless contraindicated, epidural analgesia should be offered to women to alleviate the pain felt with contractions during labor (Callahan et al., 2023).

Recently, women frequently prefer epidural anesthesia to avoid pain during vaginal delivery. Vaginal delivery with epidural anesthesia aims to minimize the pain of women during the trauma process and is the most effective pain method among pharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions (Antonakou, \& Papoutsis, 2016). The reason why vaginal delivery with epidural anesthesia is not widespread enough is that women are not given enough information about epidural anesthesia (Shishido et al., 2020).
Detailed Description: Purpose: The aim of this study is to emphasize the importance of vaginal birth with epidural anesthesia in primiparous women (who will have their first birth) in order to reduce the effect of fear of vaginal birth on the choice of cesarean section and to evaluate the effect of increasing the level of knowledge about epidural anesthesia on birth preferences.

Objectives:

To determine the level of fear and anxiety of women regarding childbirth.

To examine the effect of fear of vaginal birth on the preference for cesarean section.

To evaluate the effectiveness of vaginal birth with epidural anesthesia in pain management.

To determine the level of knowledge of women about epidural anesthesia.

To increase the rate of preference for vaginal birth by providing information about epidural anesthesia.

To reveal the role of widespread use of epidural anesthesia in reducing cesarean section rates.
