Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a significant public health problem in South
Africa. However, limited research exists on IPV during pregnancy and the
postpartum period in South Africa. The purpose of this study is to describe the
prevalence, rates and correlates of IPV among South African women during
pregnancy and the first 9 months postpartum. Data are from a longitudinal study
with women recruited during pregnancy between 2008 and 2010 at a public clinic in
Durban. We used a modified version of the World Health Organization's IPV scale
to estimate prevalence and rates of IPV during pregnancy, at 4 months postpartum
and 9 months postpartum and we used logistic regression to assess the correlates
of IPV during this time. More than 20 % of all women experienced at least one act
of physical, psychological or sexual IPV during pregnancy. Nearly one-quarter of
all women experienced at least one act of physical, psychological or sexual IPV
during the first 9 months postpartum. Psychological IPV was the most prevalent
type of IPV during pregnancy and the first 4 months postpartum. Age and previous
violence within the relationship were associated with IPV during pregnancy and
IPV during the postpartum period. The high levels of IPV during pregnancy and the
postpartum period highlight the need to develop screening and intervention
strategies specifically for this time. Further, women should be screened not only
for physical violence but also psychological violence given that psychological
violence may result in distinct negative consequences.
