Abstract

Background: Anemia in pregnancy remains a major public health concern, with prevalence exceeding 20% in Indonesia. This condition is commonly associated with hemodilution and inadequate iron intake. Objective: This study aims to analyze the effect of red guava–red spinach juice combined with iron (Fe) tablet fortification on the hemoglobin (Hb) levels of third‑trimester pregnant women. Methods: A quasi‑experimental pretest–posttest design with a control group was implemented involving 60 pregnant women. Participants were divided into control (Fe tablets only) and intervention groups (Fe tablets + 200 mL red guava–red spinach juice daily for 14 days). Hemoglobin was measured using a calibrated digital hemoglobinometer. Paired and independent t‑tests were used. Result: The control group showed an Hb increase from 9.21 ± 0.18 g/dL to 12.10 ± 0.27 g/dL (mean difference 2.89 g/dL, p < 0.001). The intervention group increased from 8.41 ± 1.12 g/dL to 13.00 ± 0.90 g/dL (mean difference 4.59 g/dL, p < 0.001). An independent t‑test revealed significant differences in post‑test Hb levels between groups (t = −20.4, p = 0.01). Effect size (Cohen’s d = 1.21) indicated strong clinical significance. Conclusion: Red guava–red spinach juice combined with Fe tablets is more effective in increasing Hb levels than Fe tablets alone. This intervention can be recommended as a complementary non‑pharmacological strategy for anemia prevention programs.

Abstract

Background: Adolescent reproductive health literacy plays a critical role in preventing infections and promoting healthy hygiene behaviors. However, many adolescent girls still lack adequate knowledge and appropriate external genital hygiene practices. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the association between reproductive health knowledge and external genital hygiene behavior among adolescent girls. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2023 among all female students at a senior high school using total sampling. Data were collected using a validated questionnaire whose content validity index (CVI) was assessed by three experts and reliability tested using Cronbach’s alpha (knowledge α = 0.82; behavior α = 0.79). Data were analyzed using Chi-square tests with a 95% confidence level. Ethical approval was obtained from the institutional ethics committee. Results: Most respondents demonstrated good knowledge (X%) and good hygiene behavior (X%). Chi-square analysis showed a statistically significant association between reproductive health knowledge and external genital hygiene behavior (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Higher reproductive health knowledge is significantly associated with better external genital hygiene behavior among adolescent girls. Strengthening school-based reproductive health education and improving hygiene facilities is recommended.
