Abstract

Cervical cancer is the second leading cause of death in women globally, with high incidence and mortality rates in developing countries, including Indonesia. Low coverage of early detection, often below five percent, causes many cases to be diagnosed at an advanced stage. The main problem identified is the lack of knowledge and positive attitudes of Women of Childbearing Age (WUS) towards early detection of cervical cancer through Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid (IVA) examination. This study aims to determine the effect of cervical cancer educational videos and VIA examinations on improving the knowledge and attitudes of women of childbearing age in the Gerunggang Community Health Center working area in 2025. The research method used is quantitative with a quasi-experimental design of one-group pretest-posttest. The study population was 205 women of childbearing age, with a sample of 32 women of childbearing age selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires before and after the educational video was given. Data analysis used a paired sample t-test. The results showed a significant increase in women of childbearing age knowledge scores, from an average of 90.09 to 90.72 (p = 0.000). Similarly, the attitude score of women of childbearing age increased from an average of 76.12 to 89.88 (p = 0.000). The conclusion of this study is that the educational video significantly influenced the increase in knowledge and the formation of positive attitudes among women of childbearing age towards IVA screening. Therefore, the Gerunggang Community Health Center is recommended to routinely use this audiovisual media in its cervical cancer early detection education program.

Abstract

Background: Breast cancer remains a major public health problem among women, with its incidence continuing to increase each year. Breastfeeding is known to have a protective effect against breast cancer; however, a shorter duration of breastfeeding may reduce this protective benefit and increase the risk of disease development. Purpose:  To determine the risk of breast cancer among women with a history of breastfeeding for less than two years. Method: An analytical survey with a cross-sectional design was conducted involving 95 respondents selected using probability sampling. Breastfeeding duration was assessed as the independent variable, while breast cancer incidence was the dependent variable. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test and Prevalence Odds Ratio (POR). Results: The results demonstrated a statistically significant association between breastfeeding duration and breast cancer incidence (p-value = 0.000). Women who breastfed for less than two years were found to have a 9.20-fold higher risk of developing breast cancer compared to those who breastfed for two years or longer (POR = 9.20; 95% CI = 3.55–23.89). Conclusion: A breastfeeding duration of less than two years is a significant risk factor for breast cancer. Strengthening breastfeeding promotion and support for longer duration may serve as an important preventive strategy against breast cancer among women.
