<![CDATA[Dysmenorrhea is a common complaint experienced before or during a woman’s period. Dysmenorrhea can be treated by applying pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods to relief pain. Pharmacological intervention involves administration of pain medication, while non-pharmacological intervention involves Dysmenorrhea exercise and warm compress. This study aims to determine the difference in the effectiveness of dysmenorrhea exercise and warm compress to relieve menstrual pain. This was a quasi-experimental study with post-test two groups design. 20 samples were selected using purposive sampling technique and assigned into 2 groups. Data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney statistical test. The results showed that there was no significant difference in effectiveness between Dysmenorrhea exercise and warm compress to relieve menstrual pain, with a p-value of 0.127>0.05. It can be concluded that there was no difference in effectiveness between Dysmenorrhea exercise and warm compress. However, based on the score, it was revealed that warm compress was more effective in relieving menstrual pain than Dysmenorrhea exercise.]]>

<![CDATA[Menstruation is one of signs of puberty in adolescent girls. The process of menstruation often affects hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls regarding the incidence of anemia and may also have a negative effect on the growth and development of adolescent girls. In addition to the iron tablet supplementation program, several non-pharmacological methods can be applied as an alternative to increase hemoglobin levels among adolescent girls with anemia, one of which is acupuncture and acupressure methods. This was a pre-experimental study with a one group pretest posttest design. The population involved 25 adolescent girls at Taruna Pembangunan Intensive High School in Surabaya according to the inclusion criteria. In further stage, the samples were trained how to perform acupressure at Zusanli (ST36) point and Sanyinjiao (SP 6) point every 2 days for 10 minutes which was carried out for 2 months from September to November 2021. Data that had been collected were tested for homogeneity and analyzed by Wilcoxon test. Before acupressure, almost half of the respondents had Hb levels of 11-12 mmHg (44%), and 7 respondents had Hb levels of <11 mmHg. After acupressure therapy, more than half of the respondents had Hb levels of 13-14 mmHg (53%). The Wilcoxon signed rank test obtained a p value = 0.000 (<0.05) which meant that there was a difference between Hb levels in pre-test and post-test. Thus, it can be concluded that there was an effect of acupressure at ST36 and SP 6 points on the increase in hemoglobin levels among adolescent girls. However, there is a need for further research on acupressure method which involved more samples and subjects with different levels of anemia, so as to confirm the effectiveness of acupressure on the increase in hemoglobin levels.]]>

<![CDATA[Labor is the process of expulsion of the fetus the uterus through the birth canal. Every woman labor must experience labor pain. Labor pain is physiological because it is caused by uterine distension and cervical dilation. Based on a preliminary study among 6 women in labor, 100% of respondents experienced pain, 33.3% of respondents responded to the pain by grinning and hissing, and were able to follow orders provided by healthcare workers well. 50% of respondents responded to pain by shouting, crying, and sometimes were able to follow orders provided by healthcare workers. Furthermore, 16.7% of respondents responded to pain by crying hysterically, screaming and pulling nearby objects. This study aims to analyze the effect of back massage in reducing pain intensity during the active phase of the first stage labor. This was a pre-experimental study with a pretest post-test one group design. Data were collected using an observation sheet. Study samples were primiparous and multiparous women in the active phase of the first stage of labor (20) at Private Practice Midwife of Mrs. "I" Mancar Peterongan Jombang. Samples were selected through accidental sampling technique. Before the back massage was performed, most of respondents experienced very severe pain (40%). After back massage, most of respondents experienced moderate pain (50%). Spearman's Rank correlation test obtained Spearman's Rank count of (0.6)>Spearman's Rank table of 0.4 which indicated that there was an effect of back massage in reducing pain intensity during the active phase of the first stage of labor. It can be concluded that the intensity of labor pain could be reduced by applying back massage.]]>

<![CDATA[The Covid-19 pandemic has greatly impacted the welfare and health of the community, which also lead to a perinatal mental health problem. Perinatal depression is not only due to hormonal fluctuations experienced by perinatal women, but also by the emotional challenges of having to keep a vulnerable newborn baby alive, while the mother gets little rest. Since a woman often lacks rest, the husband's participation in perinatal care can reduce stress on perinatal women. This study aims to determine the relationship between husband's participation and the incidence of perinatal depression during the Covid-19 pandemic. This was an observational analytical study with a cross sectional approach. The study population involved perinatal women and their husbands in Sewon Sub-District. Twenty-eight perinatal women lived in Sewon Sub-District participated in this study. The samples of 0-1month postpartum women were selected through simple random sampling technique. Data were analyzed using chi square test. The results revealed that 51.4% respondents had mild postpartum depression because their husbands participated in infant care. The chi-square value was 17,754 (higher than X2 table of 5.591) with a p-value of 0.000<0.05. Thus, Ho was rejected, meaning that there was a relationship between husband's participation in infant care and postpartum depression in Sewon Sub-District.]]>

<![CDATA[Duration of labor is influenced by four factors, including the power or uterus contraction. Labor contractions begin with a decrease in the progesterone hormone levels and an increase in the oxytocin hormone levels which is initiated by prostaglandins (PGF2α). Auricular acupuncture on uterine point is located in the triangular fossa which is innervated by the trigeminal nerve and the vagus nerve. Stimulation on the uterine point can send a wave of stimulation to the central nervous system in the posterior hypothalamus to produce oxytocin. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of auricular acupuncture on uterine point on PGF2α levels and the duration of the first stage of labor among primigravida women. This was a true experimental study with a two-group pretest-posttest design. The total sample of the study was 48 women in labor who were selected through a randomized control trial and met the inclusion criteria of low-risk pregnancy. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney tests. The results of the study revealed that auricular acupuncture on uterine point significantly increased PGF2α levels (ρ=0.002), (201.29±132.916) compared to the deep-breath relaxation group 132.08±93.530. Auricular acupuncture on uterine point was proven to shorten the duration of the first stage of labor (440.3 ± 72.94; 440.00) when compared to the deep breathing relaxation group (517.6 ± 101.00; 507.50) with a very significant difference (ρ=0.004). In conclusion, auricular acupuncture on uterine point was effective in shortening the duration of labor by increasing PGF2α levels.]]>

<![CDATA[Mataram city occupied the region with the lowest coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in West Nusa Tenggara in 2022. One of the causes of the failure of exclusive breastfeeding is the lack of breast milk production. Galactagogues are substances that can increase breast milk production. A relatively safe alternative to support breast milk production is to consume herbs containing galactagogues. It is essential to trace local culture, knowledge, and behavior regarding herbal galactagogues to get insight into the types of galactagogues, their properties as well as side effects. Scientific studies are required to be used as a reference for breastfeeding women. This study aims to describe knowledge and behavior of breastfeeding women regarding the consumption of galactagogues. The study applied mixed-method design with a cross-sectional approach to conduct a survey on knowledge and behavior regarding consumption of herbal galactagogues. Data were collected by distributing questionnaires to respondents who were selected based on inclusion criteria, namely breastfeeding women with children aged 0 to 6 months, domiciled in the city of Mataram and registered at the Community Health Center in the city of Mataram, as many as 124 people. It was found that most of respondent had a poor level of knowledge by 62.1 percent, while 37.1percent of them had good consumption behavior of herbal galactagogues. It can be concluded that generally, the people of Mataram City consumed herbal galactagogues more often based on empirical evidence from generation to generation. Thus, additional information regarding variations of other herbal galactagogues is required to support exclusive breastfeeding coverage.]]>
