Abstract

Stress is a phenomenon that often occurs in everyday life that cannot be avoided and can be experienced by everyone. There are so many demands in the first year of college that some students find them very heavy and difficult to fulfill. Students' failure to adapt to exams in the new academic year is likely to cause students to experience pressure. The research aims to determine the degree of stress and factors that trigger stress in first year students at the Faculty of Medicine, Indonesian Muslim University. This research is descriptive with a cross sectional method to measure stress levels based on stressors in first year medical students at the Faculty of Medicine, Muslim University of Indonesia, class of 2023. The method used is simple random sampling with a sample size of 295 first year students, class of 2023, Faculty of Medicine, Muslim University of Indonesia. The results of the research found that 295 students from the Faculty of Medicine, Indonesian Muslim University, class of 2023, on the Academic Related Stressor (ARS) factor, 130 people (44.1%) experienced a moderate level of stress, 152 people (44.1%) experienced a moderate level of stress on the Intrapersonal & Interpersonal Related Stressor (IRS) factor. people (51.5%), in the Teaching & Learning Related Stressor (TLRS) factor 121 people (41.0%) experienced a moderate level of stress, in the Social Related Stressor (SRS) factor 136 people (46.1%) experienced a moderate level of stress. Drive & Desire Related Stressors (DRS) experienced mild levels of stress as many as 168 people (59.9%), in the Group Activities Related Stressors (GARS) factor experienced moderate levels of stress as many as 123 people (41.7%). Based on the frequency distribution of stress levels, the number of stressors who experienced very severe stress was 35 people (11.9%).

Abstract

Postpartum psychosis is an acute psychiatric disorder characterized by rapid onset following childbirth, posing significant risks to both maternal and neonatal safety. Its underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood; however, fluctuations in reproductive hormones particularly estrogen and progesterone are strongly implicated in its pathogenesis. The abrupt decline of these hormones after delivery may disrupt neurotransmitter systems, especially dopaminergic and GABAergic pathways, thereby precipitating neurobiological imbalance in vulnerable individuals. This study employs a literature review method using a narrative review approach, drawing upon databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar, complemented by manual searches. Following the PRISMA framework, a total of 20 articles met the inclusion criteria and were systematically analyzed. The findings indicate that estrogen demonstrates a more consistent association with psychotic symptomatology, whereas progesterone exerts its effects primarily through its metabolite, allopregnanolone, which modulates the GABAergic system. In addition, genetic predisposition, sleep disturbances, and alterations in neuroplasticity contribute to the condition. Postpartum psychosis therefore emerges as a multifactorial disorder resulting from the complex interplay between hormonal fluctuations and underlying neurobiological vulnerability.
