Data collection with standard operating procedures (SOP) for cold compresses, and lavender aromatherapy and observation sheets with bourbonic pain scales. Analyzed using the Wilcoxon test to find out before and after, to determine the effectiveness of using the Mann Whitney test. Results : Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test P=0.000 which means there is a difference in pain intensity before and after cold compresses are given, As for the lavender aromatherapy variable, the value of P=0.008 means that there is a difference in pain intensity before and after lavender aromatherapy is given. Mann-Whitney U Test statistic shows that the significance value P = 0.077, so there is no significant difference between giving cold compress and lavender aromatherapy to reduction in postpartum perineal pain intensity.
