This shows that good knowledge of postpartum mothers has a positive and significant influence on the emergence of sexual arousal. , the value of OR > 1 of 6.125 (0.979-38.312) strengthens the notion that good knowledge of postpartum mothers on post partum sexual arousal is a factor in whether or not there is sexual arousal in postpartum mothers..Conclusions: P-Value = 0.006 < 0.05. These results indicate that good knowledge of postpartum mothers on postpartum sexual arousal has a positive and significant influence/relationship on the emergence of postpartum women's sexual arousal, OR value > 1, which is 6.125 CI value / interval belief ( 0.979-38.312) the stronger the assumption that knowledge is a determinant of the emergence of post partum sexual arousal.
