Since the COVID-19 case was discovered, Indonesia has been one of the affected nations and found various COVID-19 infection and immunization risks. Most females are in the menstrual cycle following COVID-19 infection, regardless of the number of days between cycles, blood quantity, or menses duration.

The 758 female respondents in Yogyakarta were divided into two groups: 532 females who received vaccination and never have been infected with COVID-19 (Group A) and 226 females with a history of being infected with COVID-19 and vaccination (Group B). The data was analyzed using SPSS 26. The results found that most respondents aged 17-25 (90.24%) were students (80.87%). Both two groups had acne on Pre-menstrual syndrome (28.16%), 5-8 days of menstrual duration (73.75%), 30 days of menstruation duration length (57%), and the regular menstruation volume (63.19%) after COVID-19 vaccination.
