Abstract

During the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, which typically begins 7-10 days before menstruation and ends with menstruation, women of childbearing age often experience a collection of physical, behavioral, and emotional symptoms known as premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Stress levels are among the factors that can contribute to PMS. The objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between stress levels and PMS. This research employs a quantitative approach, using descriptive correlation methods and a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 62 respondents, selected through total sampling. Data were collected using a shortened Premenstrual Assessment Form (SPAF) questionnaire and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). Statistical analysis involved the Spearman Rank Test, which revealed a significant relationship between stress levels and PMS among Nursing Study Program students at Harapan Bangsa University Undergraduate Program. The p-value was 0.000, which is less than the significance level (α = 0.05), leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis (H0).The correlation coefficient (r) was calculated to be 0.456, indicating a moderate strength of correlation. This suggests that higher stress levels are associated with a greater perceived severity of PMS symptoms. Female students demonstrated an ability to both avoid stressors and manage stress, which can help reduce the occurrence of PMS symptoms

Abstract

Childbirth is the stage of expelling the products of conception through the birth canal with or without assistance. The birth process is classified into 2 ways, namely normal delivery and caesarean section (Sectio Caesarea). Caesarean section can have a negative impact, namely physically causing pain in the stomach during surgery which has a higher pain level, namely 27% compared to the normal birth stage which has a lower pain level, namely 9%. Pain can be prevented with non-pharmacological therapy, one of which is the Benson relaxation technique. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Benson relaxation technique in reducing pain in mothers after cesarean section. This research is qualitative research with a case study method using a nursing process approach. The subjects used were post-cesarean section patients with acute pain problems at Kardinah Hospital, Tegal City. The research instrument used was the maternity nursing care format. Research data collection techniques are observation, interviews, physical examination and documentation studies. The instrument used to measure pain is the Numeric Ratting Scale (NRS), pain measurements are carried out before and after the Benson relaxation technique. The results of applying the Benson relaxation technique to mothers after cesarean section showed that the patient experienced a decrease in the level of pain from the first day of treatment to the third day of treatment, namely from a scale of 7 to a scale of 3. These results show that the Benson relaxation technique was able to minimize the scale of pain in mothers after cesarean section
