Abstract

Vaginal discharge is one of the common complaints experienced by acceptors of injectable hormonal contraception and may negatively affect reproductive health and quality of life. This study aimed to analyze the effect of soursop leaf (Annona muricata) decoction on reducing vaginal discharge symptoms among injectable hormonal contraceptive acceptors. A quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test two-group design was conducted at the Rappokalling Community Health Center, Makassar, over a period of 10 months. The study involved 50 women of reproductive age who experienced vaginal discharge and were selected using the Slovin formula. Data were collected using observation sheets assessing the color, odor, and itching intensity of vaginal discharge before and after the intervention. Statistical analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to determine differences before and after administration of soursop leaf decoction. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in vaginal discharge conditions after the intervention (p < 0.05). Respondents with clear white vaginal discharge increased from 54% to 96%, while abnormal vaginal discharge decreased from 46% to 4%. Complaints of unpleasant odor significantly decreased, with respondents reporting no odor increasing from 26% to 84%. Itching symptoms also improved markedly, as moderate itching decreased from 30% to 0%, mild itching decreased from 52% to 16%, and respondents without itching increased from 14% to 84%. These findings indicate that soursop leaf decoction is effective in reducing vaginal discharge symptoms among injectable hormonal contraceptive acceptors and may serve as a complementary non-pharmacological intervention for reproductive health management.

Abstract

Fibroadenoma Mammae (FAM) is the most common benign breast tumor occurring in adolescent girls and women under 30 years of age. This study aims to determine whether peer group education can significantly enhance students' ability to perform breast self-examination (BSE) as a preventive effort against Fibroadenoma Mammae. This research employed a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The study was conducted at State Senior High School 3 Gowa with 50 respondents, consisting of female students from grades X and XI selected through purposive sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The intervention involved Peer Group Education, where selected students (peer educators) were trained to educate their peers using discussion sessions, video demonstrations, and educational tools. Data were collected through questionnaires and observation sheets and analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test to assess differences before and after the intervention. The average pre-test score of early detection skills was 3.46, which increased to 8.60 after the intervention. The Wilcoxon test result showed Z = -6.557 with p = 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant improvement in early detection skills after the Peer Group Education intervention. In conclusion, Peer Group Education was proven effective in enhancing the early detection skills of Fibroadenoma Mammae among adolescent girls at State Senior High School 3 Gowa. The peer-led approach increased motivation, engagement, and practical understanding, demonstrating that peer-based learning can be a valuable method for promoting adolescent reproductive health awareness.
