Abstract

Adolescent girls are a vulnerable group for nutritional problems, particularly Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED), which can be simply detected through Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) measurement. Undetected and untreated CED in adolescent girls may lower immunity, reduce learning concentration, and affect future reproductive readiness. The community service program “Gerakan Puteri Sehat Bebas KEK” aimed to screen the nutritional status of adolescent girls through MUAC measurement as an early detection effort for CED. The activity was conducted on 9 June 2026 at SMA Negeri 1 Tinambung, Polewali Mandar Regency, involving 36 adolescent girl respondents aged 16-18 years. A descriptive method with anthropometric (MUAC) measurement was applied. The screening results showed that 11 respondents (30.6%) experienced CED (MUAC <23.5 cm), while 25 respondents (69.4%) had normal nutritional status. These findings indicate the need for continuous nutrition education and periodic nutritional status monitoring among adolescent girls to prevent the long-term impact of CED on reproductive health and future generations.
