Results: Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was utilized to determine differences in EPDS and/or GAD-7 scores
between the aromatherapy and control groups at baseline, midpoint and end of study. No significant
differences were found between aromatherapy and control groups at baseline. The midpoint and final
scores indicated that aromatherapy had significant improvements greater than the control group on both
EPDS and GAD-7 scores. There were no adverse effects reported.
