Finhally, the sample of the study was determined as 28. Frequency and percentage distribution were used in the analysis of the data.
Conclusion: Despite the relatively low number of YouTube videos on the subject of the study, the majority of them were presented by healthcare professionals, offering concise, well-received, and relevant content. It can be suggested that there is a need to increase online resources for sexual health education during the postpartum period.
