Abstract

Vaginal discharge or flour albus is an excessive discharge from the vagina that is not menstrual blood. Pathological fluoride albus caused by vaginal infections (fungi, bacteria, parasites, viruses). The prevalence of causes is 25%-50 candidiasis, 20%-40% bacterial vaginosis and 5%-15% trichomoniasis. The characteristics of pathological vaginal discharge are smelly, itchy, yellowish or greenish, thick and cloudy and large in quantity. If this condition does not receive immediate treatment, it will have a negative impact on women's health. Infection will develop and affect the function of the reproductive organs. Medical treatment efforts include administering drugs in the form of capsules, tablets and ovules (vaginal tablets). Meanwhile, for non-medical or complementary therapy, betel leaf decoction can be used (Dame, 2023). The aim of this outreach is to provide education about the benefits of boiled betel leaves for vaginal discharge in women of childbearing age. The activity was carried out at PMB Masdewati Pohan in July 2023, the subject was women of childbearing age in the PMB Masdewati Pohan area. Activity results: Counseling participants learned about the benefits of boiled betel leaf water for vaginal discharge.

It is hoped that women of childbearing age can maintain personal hygiene to prevent vaginal discharge and can use boiled water from betel leaves to treat vaginal discharge that occurs.
