Abstract

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder distinguished by irregular menstrual cycles, elevated androgen levels, and the presence of polycystic ovaries, impacting approximately 4-18% of women of reproductive age.  This condition can lead to infertility, with obesity exacerbating its manifestations by elevating testosterone levels and contributing to insulin resistance.  Various factors, including dietary habits and a sedentary lifestyle, play a significant role in the prevalence of obesity, particularly in Indonesia.  This research aims to explore the potential relationship between obesity, physical activity, and dietary habits concerning the prevalence of PCOS among women of reproductive age in East Java.  A quantitative research design has been employed, utilizing a cross-sectional approach.  The study comprises two distinct groups: one consisting of women diagnosed with PCOS and another comprising healthy women.  The sampling method used is purposive sampling.  The research instrument includes demographic questionnaires, Body Mass Index (BMI) calculations, dietary assessments, and the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ).  Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 21.  The findings indicated that the obesity emerged as the most significant independent factor influencing the likelihood of PCOS occurrence (p=0.000).  The Exponent Beta (Exp. B) value, calculated at 31.62, reveals that women with obesity are at a 31-fold increased risk of developing PCOS compared to their non-obese counterparts.  In conclusion, there is a significant association between obesity, physical activity, and dietary habits and the occurrence of PCOS among women of childbearing age in East Java

Abstract

Background: Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers and the fourth leading cause of death among women worldwide. Several factors influencing cervical cancer screening behavior include knowledge and attitudes toward screening, relationships between patients and health care providers, and fear of test results. Purpose: This study aimed to identify the provision of health interventions in improving cervical cancer screening behavior. Methods: The method used in this study was a scoping review of 11 selected articles. The findings showed that six articles reported health education using audio visual media, which significantly increased cervical cancer screening behavior. Three articles examined the use of social media, although one study found that social media did not significantly improve screening behavior. In addition, three articles used conventional educational methods and demonstrated significant improvements in cervical cancer screening behavior. Results: Overall, the review indicates that increasing knowledge is a key factor in encouraging women to participate in cervical cancer screening. Conclusion: Adequate understanding can improve awareness, willingness, and ability to undergo screening. Future studies are recommended to compare the effectiveness of various health education media to support their implementation in health services. Nurses, as educators and counselors, have an important role in providing sufficient information and influencing the community regarding the importance of cervical cancer screening.
