Abstract

Pathological vaginal discharge is a common reproductive health problem among women, especially in Indonesia, with a prevalence reaching 75%. Conventional treatment for vaginal discharge is often constrained by cost and limited access to healthcare services, making traditional remedies such as green betel leaf decoction and turmeric extract popular alternatives. This study aimed to examine the antifungal effectiveness of green betel leaf decoction and turmeric in significantly reducing pathological vaginal discharge among adolescent to adult women over the long term. The research method employed was a literature review with a systematic search of the Google Scholar database from January 2020 to July 2024 using the keyword “Traditional Medicine for Vaginal Discharge.” From 3,010 initial articles, after screening for duplication and relevance, five articles were selected for descriptive analysis. The results showed that green betel leaf decoction and turmeric extract had high effectiveness in reducing pathological vaginal discharge, as evidenced by a significant decrease in discharge scores (p<0.05) across various age groups of women. Bioactive compounds such as essential oils, flavonoids, and curcumin provide antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory activities that help restore vaginal microflora balance. In conclusion, green betel leaf decoction and turmeric were effective in significantly reducing pathological vaginal discharge among adolescent to adult women, in accordance with the long-term treatment objectives.

Abstract

Bakteri merupakan mikroorganisme yang dapat memberikan dampak negatif terhadap kesehatan manusia, terutama pada lingkungan sekolah yang memiliki tingkat interaksi tinggi. Salah satu upaya pencegahan penyebaran bakteri adalah dengan penggunaan bahan kimia sebagai antibakteri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan pemahaman siswa/i SMP Rahmat Islamiyah mengenai peran dan pentingnya bahan kimia sebagai antibakteri dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Metode yang digunakan adalah pemberian edukasi melalui penyuluhan dan diskusi interaktif kepada siswa/i. Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan pada tanggal 28 Januari 2026 di SMP Rahmat Islamiyah. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman siswa mengenai jenis bahan kimia antibakteri, cara kerja, serta penggunaan yang aman dan tepat. Edukasi ini diharapkan dapat membentuk perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat sejak dini. Kesimpulan penelitian ini adalah edukasi tentang pentingnya bahan kimia sebagai antibakteri dapat meningkatkan pemahaman siswa SMP mengenai pencegahan penyebaran bakteri. Kegiatan ini membantu menumbuhkan kesadaran siswa untuk menerapkan perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat dalam kehidupan sehari-hari.

Abstract

Senggani is a traditional Asian plant commonly used as an alternative medicine, particularly in Indonesia. The leaves of the senggani plant contain secondary metabolites, including tannins, alkaloids, flavonoids, and saponins. Among these, tannins and flavonoids are believed to have antibacterial properties. This study investigates whether a facial wash gel made from the ethanol extract of senggani leaves possesses stable properties and meets established standards. Additionally, the study aims to evaluate its antibacterial activity against Cutibacterium acnes, the bacteria responsible for acne. A maceration method with 70% ethanol was used to prepare the ethanol extract from senggani leaves. This extract was then formulated into a facial wash gel using carbopol polymer at 5%, 7.5%, and 10%, followed by tests to assess its antibacterial activity. The antibacterial activity was determined using the disc diffusion method at the same concentrations. The results indicated that the diameter of the bacterial inhibition zone was 9.93 mm at 5%, 11.66 mm at 7.5%, and 13.93 mm at 10%. The gel preparation of the ethanol extract from senggani leaves demonstrated stable properties, with physical stability evaluations confirming compliance with the quality standards for facial washes set by Indonesian national regulations. Furthermore, the senggani leaf ethanol extract gel effectively inhibited the growth of Cutibacterium acnes, indicating its potential as an effective face wash.
