Abstract :Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the knowledge and practices of Turkish women about traditional practices regarding postpartum placenta and umbilical cord. Method: This descriptive study was conducted with a total of 1,569 women from five regions in Turkey, who were selected by stratified random sampling method, between October 2021 and June 2022. The data were collected using a Google survey. Results: Although the most common practice of the participants was to bury the placenta and umbilical cord, the number of people who wanted to do lotus birth and art with placenta and umbilical cord in the future was also quite high. There were also regional differences between practices (p<0.001).
