Abstract

Background: Injection hormonal contraceptive can be distinguished into DMPA (depo medroxyprogesterone acetate) and combination. DMPA injection is administered in single dose of 150 mg/mL intramuscular every 12 week. It was hypothesized that DMPA injection resulted inadvertent effect such as lowered sexual life quality, increased body mass index, lowered quality of skin health, and abnormal uterine bleeding. This study aimed to examine the effects of DMPA injection on sexual life, body mass index, skin health, and abnormal uterine bleeding.Subjects and Method: This was analytical observational study with retrospective cohort design. This study was conducted in Jombang, East Java. A total sample of 149 women of reproductive age consisting of 99 DMPA injection contraceptive users and 50 non hormonal contraceptive users was selected for this study, by stratified random sampling. The dependent variables were sexual life quality, body mass index, quality of skin health, and uterine bleeding. The independent variable was DMPA injection contraceptive use and age. The data were collected by a set of questionnaire. Sexual life quality was measured by female sexual function index (FSFI). The data were analyzed by multiple logistic regression.Results: Use of hormonal contraceptive (OR= 20.17; 95% CI = 6.62 to 61.42; p<0.001) and age 30-35 years old (OR=17.51; 95% CI = 5.74 to 53.38; p<0.001) increased the risk of low quality of sexual life. Age 30-35 years old lowered (OR=0.16; 95% CI =0.07 to 0.36; p<0.001) and hormonal contraceptive (OR= 4.25; 95% CI = 1.95 to 9.30; p<0.001) increased the risk of low quality of skin health. Hormonal contraceptive (b=2.93; SE=0.23; p<0.001) and age 30-35 years old (b=0.70; SE=0.24; p<0.001) increased abnormal uterine bleeding. Hormonal contraceptive (b=5.75; SE=0.54; p<0.001) and age 30-35 years old (b=5.05; SE= 0.55; p<0.001) increased body mass index among women of reproductive age.Conclusion: Use of injection hormonal contraceptive lowers the quality of social life, lowers the quality of skin health, increases body mass index, and increases abnormal uterine bleeding.Keywords: hormonal contraceptive injection, sexual life, skin health, body mass index, uterine bleedingCorrespondence:

Abstract

Background: Exclusive breastfeeding is provision of breast milk for infants from 0 to 6 months of age with no additional food or drink intake. Provision of medicine, vitamin, and mineral is allowable during the period of exclusive breastfeeding. There is a lack of studies examining factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding in Surabaya using multilevel analysis. This study aimed to examine factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding in Surabaya using multilevel analysis.Subjects and Method: This was an analytic observational study with a cross sectional design. The study was carried out at Gunung Anyar community health center (puskesmas), Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia. A total of 25 puskesmas was selected by stratified random sampling, covering both accredited and non-accredited puskesmas. A total of 8 lactating mothers from each puskesmas were selected by simple random sampling. The dependent variable was exclusive breastfeeding. The independent variables were subjective norm, leisure time for breastfeeding, attitude, husband support, family support, and health personnel support. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multilevel logistic regression.Results: Exclusive breastfeeding was positively affected by positive subjective norm (b=4.31; 95% CI= 1.63 to 6.99; p=0.002), leisure time for breastfeeding (b=3.97; 95% CI= 1.12 to 6.81; p=0.006), positive attitude (b=3.01; 95% CI= 0.57 to 5.45; p=0.016), strong husband support (b=2.39; 95% CI= 0.29 to 4.51; p=0.026), strong family support (b=2.71; 95% CI= 0.46 to 4.97; p=0.018), and strong health personnel support (b=4.13; 95% CI= 1.28 to 6.99; p=0.005). Posyandu showed strong contextual effect on exclusive breastfeeding with intra-class correlation (ICC)= 69.47%.Conclusion: Exclusive breastfeeding is positively affected by positive subjective norm, leisure time for breastfeeding, positive attitude, strong husband support, strong family support, and strong health personnel support.Keywords: exclusive breastfeeding, subjective norm, attitude, husband support, health personnel supportCorrespondence:

Abstract

Background: Long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) are the most effective methods of birth control. LARCs include the copper IUD, the hormonal (progesterone) IUD, and the hormonal contraceptive implant (effective for 10, 5 and 3 years, respectively). These methods of birth control can prevent unwanted pregnancy up to 20 times better than birth control pills, patches, and vaginal rings. However, the use of LARCs remains low in Boyolali, Central Java, Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze the determinants of women’s choice of a LARC in Boyolali, Central Java. Subjects and Method: This was a case control study conducted in 25 community health centers, Boyolali District, Central Java, from April 24 to May 20, 2018. A sample of 200 women in reproductive age was selected by fixed disease sampling. The dependent variable was choice of a LARC. The independent variables were age, education, parity, knowledge, husband support, and counseling by health worker. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a logistic regression multilevel using Stata 13 program. Results: Women’s choice of the LARC increased with age ≥35 years (b= 4.54; 95% CI= 1.69 to 12.15; p= 0.003), education ≥senior high school (b= 4.59; 95%CI= 1.80 to 11.70; p= 0.001), parity ≥3 (b = 7.15; 95%CI= 2.63 to 19.44; p<0.001), better knowledge (b= 2.20; 95% CI= 0.88 to 5.50; p= 0.089), counseling by health worker (b= 2.82; 95% CI= 1.11 to 7.11; p= 0.028), and husband support (b= 5.54; 95% CI= 2.15 to 14.28; p<0.001). Conclusion: Women’s choice of LARC increases with age ≥35 years, education ≥senior highschool, parity ≥3, better knowledge, counseling by health worker, and husband support.
