The puerperium or postpartum stage, considered as an involutive process of an anatomical and functional order, also characterized by the high prevalence of complications in the mother's health, which are the main causes of maternal mortality. In Peru, maternal deaths since 2015 have decreased gradually year after year. Although a decrease is observed, maternal deaths continue to be a shocking problem in the health of women and the family. Objective Determine the level of knowledge about the self-care of puerperal women treated at the Apoyo Iquitos Hospital, from August to September 2020. Methodology Quantitative research study. Descriptive, correlational, cross-sectional and prospective design. The population consisted of 560 puerperal women. The sample consisted of 110. Result In the sociodemographic characteristics it was found: 64.5% of the puerperal women were between 20 and 35 years of age, 46.4% with completed secondary school, 66.4% of urban origin, 78.2% cohabiting marital status and 80.9% housewives. In the gynecological-obstetric history it was found: multiparity 61.8%, 64.5% with prenatal care and 58.2% of the puerperal women did receive information on postpartum care in prenatal care. 97.3% of the puerperal women had a “Good” level of knowledge about self-care after delivery, in the dimensions of feeding (86.4%), perineal and general hygiene (96.4%), breast self-care (99.1%), signs and symptoms alarm (73.6%) and in the sexual health dimension they had a deficient level of knowledge (96.4%) Conclusion There is no statistically significant relationship between sociodemographic data, gynecological-obstetric history and the level of “Good” knowledge.
