Abstract

Adolescents are faced with many problems related to reproductive health, so adolescents need to know to be able to face these challenges. However, the knowledge of adolescents in Indonesia is still low, especially in terms of ways to protect themselves against reproductive health risks, such as preventing unwanted pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections, and AIDS. The provision of education needs to be done to address adolescent reproductive health problems. Educational activities related to reproductive health at MTsS Pesantren Thawalib Padang have never been conducted. The students MTsS are the right target group to be able to provide information related to reproductive health. The objective of this service activity is to enhance students' understanding of reproductive health, enabling them to cultivate a positive and responsible approach when addressing the sexual and reproductive changes that transpire within them. The approach employed involves student outreach and the placement of informative posters in their dormitories. The augmentation in students' knowledge was assessed using a questionnaire consisting of 15 questions before and after the activity. Data analysis was conducted through a paired sample t-test, a statistical method that compares the means of two related groups to determine if there is a significant difference between them. After the activity was carried out, there was an increase in the average level of knowledge before (pre-test), 40.63 to 49.76 after (post-test), providing education with a p-value of 0.000. It can be concluded that there is an increase in knowledge after adolescent reproductive health education. It is hoped that students can access reproductive health information from the posters displayed on the dormitory walls.

Abstract

Teenage girls are at risk of experiencing anemia because they menstruate every month. Anemia that is not treated immediately can negatively impact the short and long-term. In the long term, the impact of anemia can also affect pregnancy. Pregnancy with anemia will increase the risk of having a baby with a low birth weight and the risk that the child born will grow up to be stunted. So, women need to prevent anemia as early as possible. Education regarding the prevention of anemia has yet to be carried out at MTsS Pesantren Thawalib, and students have not taken Blood Supplement Tablets (BST) once a week. MTsS female students who menstruate every month are the right target group to be given education and health information related to preventing anemia. This service activity aims to increase female students' knowledge regarding anemia prevention. The methods used were counseling, putting up posters, giving BST, distributing pocketbooks, and distributing BST drinking calendars. The extension activities began with a pre-test and post-test to measure female students' knowledge before and after the education on anemia prevention. There was an increase in the average knowledge before 5.26 (pre-test) to 7.87 (post-test) after being given counseling with a p-value of 0.000. This shows that the anemia prevention education that has been carried out can increase the level of knowledge of female students. Students and schools should optimally utilize poster media, pocketbooks, and BST drinking calendars. With this service activity, female students can prevent anemia by regularly consuming BST once a week. Support is needed from MTsS Pesantren Thawalib Padang to monitor the student's compliance with BST consumption by checking the BST drinking calendar distributed to each student.

Abstract

Society often views sex education for early childhood as taboo, believing it is inappropriate for young children. However, early health education plays a crucial role in reducing the risk of sexual violence. In 2022, the Indonesian government recorded a high incidence of sexual violence, with 11.016 reported cases. This study examines the factors that influence maternal behavior in providing reproductive health education to early childhood in West Sumatra during 2021. This study uses a quantitative cross-sectional study method, the research conducted in May to October 2021 in West Sumatra. The study involved 257 mothers with children aged 3-6 years, selected through cluster sampling. We analyzed the data using univariate and bivariate analysis, employing the Chi-square method. The result shows that factors such as attitudes (0.029), exposure to information (<0.001), and family support (<0.001) significantly influence maternal behavior in providing reproductive health education. However, knowledge levels do not show a significant influence on maternal behavior. In addressing these findings, we recommend strengthening family support through family counseling training programs and increasing the availability and accessibility of information on reproductive health education.

Introduction: Referring to the results of the Indonesian Health Survey, it was reported that the largest group of smokers were adolescents aged 15-19 years (56.5%) in 2023. There was an increase in the percentage of novice smokers in Padang City in 2024 which reached 49%. So it is necessary to carry out appropriate handling. One of them is by conducting this study to determine the effect of cigarette access and pocket money on adolescent smoking behaviour in urban and rural areas.

Abstract

Anemia was one of the leading causes of maternal mortality, with the 2018 Riset Kesehatan Dasar showing that 48.9% of pregnant women in Indonesia were affected. The high prevalence of anemia was primarily caused by nutritional deficiencies, which resulted from a lack of knowledge about proper nutritional needs during pregnancy. One preventive measure was the consumption of at least ninety Blood Additive Tablets (TTD) during pregnancy. An educational activity aimed to increase pregnant women’s knowledge about anemia prevention and the importance of consuming TTD. The methods used included lectures, discussions, distribution of educational materials like leaflets and posters, and sharing-hearing sessions. The success of the education program was measured based on the increase in participants' knowledge before and after the educational activity. The results showed an increase in the average knowledge score of pregnant women from 5.75 before the education to 9.25 after the education, with a p-value of 0.02. This indicated that the educational intervention was effective in improving knowledge. The use of health promotion materials, particularly leaflets, played a key role in enhancing understanding. It was expected that all pregnant women would consume TTD as recommended, and that health workers would regularly remind them of its importance. The activity was also intended to be conducted routinely to reduce the incidence of anemia among pregnant women.

Abstract

The 2023 Indonesian Health Survey data shows that the 15-19 age group accounts for the highest percentage of smokers (56.5%), followed by the 10-14 age group (18.4%). This data indicates that children are among the groups with a significant likelihood of becoming a generation of smokers. Lack of understanding of children regarding the dangers of cigarettes, widespread exposure to cigarette advertisements in various media, easy access to cigarettes without age restrictions, and the influence of the social environment have a significant influence on children to smoke. Providing education on the dangers of cigarettes needs to be done from childhood to reduce the number of beginner smokers. This activity aims to increase students' knowledge and awareness of the dangers of cigarettes so that it can prevent and reduce the number of cigarettes in children. This activity occurred at SDN 32 Andalas, Padang City, targeting all 53 students in grades 5 and 6. The methods used were counseling, distribution of leaflets, and installation of posters about the dangers of cigarettes. After the activity was carried out, there was an increase in the average value of students' knowledge level, from 6.25 in the pre-test to 7.58 in the post-test, with a p-value of 0.001 (<0.005). So, it can be concluded that the education that was carried out successfully increased students' knowledge regarding the dangers of cigarettes. Thus, it is hoped that students will be aware of the dangers of cigarettes and will be motivated not to smoke. It is also extended to SDN 32 Andalas to continue educating students not to smoke, implementing a smoke-free area, and strictly supervising students who smoke.
