The goal of this observational study is to learn whether different classification systems for second-degree perineal tears can predict postpartum complications in women undergoing spontaneous vaginal childbirth. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the Scandinavian classification better predict postpartum complications such as hemoglobin drop, perineal pain, occult muscle injury, and sexual dysfunction? Does the De Simone classification better correlate with these same postpartum outcomes? Researchers will compare the Scandinavian classification and the De Simone classification to see which system more accurately predicts clinically relevant postpartum complications. Participants will: Undergo standard clinical assessment after spontaneous vaginal delivery with a second-degree perineal tear Have their perineal tear classified using both the Scandinavian and De Simone systems Receive routine postpartum evaluation, including hemoglobin measurement, pain assessment (VAS), and perineal ultrasound Complete follow-up assessment of sexual function using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)
