description The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with preferred type of delivery among pregnant women in Elazig City, Turkey. It is important that pregnant women be adequately informed by health professionals and guided to select the childbirth method that will best ensure their health and that of their babies. Each participant was interviewed in a face-to-face interview and a questionnaire was followed by the researcher. The questionnaire asked about previous delivery history and the factors influencing the type of delivery. The participants were also asked about their preferred method of delivery and the reasons why they answered the way they did. Participants were randomly selected from 173 family medicine centers.

Fifty-five point six percent had a primary school education and 55.9% had a husband with a high school or higher education level.

The primary reason given by respondents for preferring a cesarean section was fear of vaginal birth, followed by the desire to avoid pain and to reduce the risk to the baby.
