Abstract

Introduction: Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem caused by prolonged inadequate nutrient intake and recurrent infections, leading to impaired growth and development in children. Globally, stunting remains a major public health challenge, particularly in developing countries, including Indonesia. Stunting does not only affect physical growth but also impacts cognitive development, productivity, and future health risks. Adolescents, especially girls, are an important target group in stunting prevention because they are future mothers who will determine the nutritional status of the next generation. Adopting positive attitudes and behaviors regarding nutrition during adolescence is crucial to break the intergenerational cycle of stunting. The Indonesian Ministry of Health has introduced the My Plate guidelines as a practical approach to promote balanced nutrition, emphasizing the importance of appropriate food portions that consist of vegetables, fruits, protein, and carbohydrates. Objective: This study aimed to determine adolescent girls’ attitudes toward the My Plate program as one of the strategies to prevent stunting. Method: This descriptive study involved 214 adolescent girls at SMPN 1 Ciamis, selected using accidental sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire on attitudes toward My Plate. The data were analyzed using univariate methods to obtain frequency distributions. Results:  The findings showed that 112 respondents (52.3%) had negative attitudes, while 102 respondents (47.7%) demonstrated positive attitudes. Although the difference was slight, the results indicate that most adolescent girls still have a less supportive attitude toward the implementation of My Plate in daily life. Conclusion: Adolescent girls’ attitudes toward My Plate remain predominantly negative, highlighting the need for strengthened nutrition education. Schools and health services are encouraged to collaborate in conducting routine counseling on balanced nutrition and the importance of My Plate to foster more positive attitudes and support stunting prevention efforts.

Abstract

Introduction: Menstrual disorders such as dysmenorrhea and premenstrual syndrome (PMS) are common among adolescent girls and often cause physical discomfort and psychological distress that interfere with academic performance and daily functioning. Within the context of adolescent-centered health promotion, psychoeducation has been increasingly recognized as a non-pharmacological strategy to improve menstrual health and emotional well-being. Objective: This study aims to systematically review and synthesize evidence regarding the effectiveness of psychoeducational interventions in alleviating menstrual symptoms and improving psychological outcomes among adolescent girls. Specifically, it evaluates outcomes related to pain severity, premenstrual symptoms, emotional regulation, and illness perception. Method: A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Taylor & Francis, ProQuest, Wiley Online Library, JSTOR, SAGE Journals, and Springer Nature for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published between 2015 and 2025. Eligible studies included adolescent girls aged 10–19 years who received psychoeducational interventions for menstrual disorders. The interventions varied in structure, duration, and theoretical basis, including models such as Leventhal’s Self-Regulation Model, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and psychodrama-based approaches. Study selection followed PRISMA 2020 guidelines.Methodological quality was appraised using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) checklist. Result: Five RCTs with a total of 395 participants met the inclusion criteria. The findings consistently demonstrated that psychoeducation significantly reduced menstrual pain severity and premenstrual symptoms while enhancing emotional regulation and illness perception. Most interventions were delivered in small-group formats across three to seven sessions, combining cognitive and behavioral components. Conclusion: Psychoeducation is an effective, feasible, and complementary intervention for managing menstrual disorders in adolescent girls. Integrating psychoeducational programs into school-based and primary healthcare settings can enhance adolescent reproductive health outcomes and promote holistic well-being through preventive and evidence-based approaches.

Abstract

Introduction: The postpartum period is a critical phase during which mothers undergo significant physiological and psychological changes that may increase their vulnerability to complications such as perineal wound infections. Perineal injuries remain one of the leading causes of postpartum infection, particularly in developing countries where access to health information and quality midwifery care is limited. Adequate maternal knowledge regarding perineal wound care is essential in preventing infection, promoting healing, and reducing morbidity. However, many postpartum mothers still lack proper understanding of wound care practices due to factors such as limited education, inadequate information sources, and insufficient counseling from healthcare providers. Objective: This study aimed to identify the factors influencing the level of knowledge of postpartum mothers regarding perineal wound care at the Independent Practice of Midwife E, Kalijati District, Subang Regency, in 2025. Method: A descriptive-analytic approach with a cross-sectional design was employed. A total of 35 respondents were selected using accidental sampling, and data were collected through structured, validated, and reliable questionnaires. Univariate analysis was conducted to describe respondent characteristics, while bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test examined correlations between variables. Result: The results showed that most respondents were greater than or equal to 25 years old, had intermediate education, were housewives, were multiparous, and primarily received information from healthcare workers. The majority had a fair level of knowledge (48.6%). Significant relationships were found between education level (p = 0.016) and information source (p = 0.027) with knowledge level, while age, occupation, and parity showed no significant associations. Conclusion: In conclusion, education and information sources are key determinants of postpartum mothers knowledge of perineal wound care. Strengthening health education by midwives is essential to enhance maternal understanding, prevent infection, and support optimal postpartum recovery.

Abstract

Introduction: Adolescents are a vulnerable group to risky sexual behavior due to biological, psychological, and social changes that occur during the transition to adulthood. Limited knowledge about the dangers of risky sexual behavior and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) can increase the risk of reproductive health problems, sexually transmitted infections, and unintended pregnancies. Therefore, appropriate educational strategies are needed to improve adolescents knowledge regarding reproductive health. One effective approach is the use of video-based health education, which can present information in an engaging and easily understandable format. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of video-based health education on adolescents knowledge about the dangers of risky sexual behavior and sexually transmitted diseases. Method: This study employed a quantitative method with a pre-experimental design using a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The research was conducted among students of SMKN 1 Kawali in 2025. The sample consisted of students who met the inclusion criteria and were selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire to measure adolescents knowledge before and after the intervention. The data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. Results: The results showed an increase in adolescents knowledge after receiving video-based health education. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon test indicated a significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores, with a p-value < 0.05. Conclusion: Video-based health education has a significant effect on improving adolescents knowledge about the dangers of risky sexual behavior and sexually transmitted diseases. Therefore, the use of video as an educational medium can be considered an effective strategy in health promotion programs for adolescents.

Abstract

Introduction: Complete basic immunization is an important effort in preventing infectious diseases in infants; however, its coverage is still not optimal. Nationally, the coverage of complete basic immunization in Indonesia continues to fluctuate and has not yet reached the established targets, mainly due to various barriers such as limited public knowledge, inadequate family support, and restricted access to health services. This condition indicates the need for more targeted efforts to improve the success of immunization programs. Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine the role of maternal knowledge, family support, and access to health services in the success of complete basic immunization in the working area of Sukalaksana Public Health Center, Tasikmalaya City. Method: The method used in this study is a quantitative approach with an analytical observational design using a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study consists of mothers who have infants aged 9–12 months, with a total sample of 92 respondents selected using a simple random sampling technique. Result: The results of this study show that the majority of respondents have good knowledge (54.3%), receive family support (65.2%), and have easy access to health services (63.0%). A total of 67.4% of infants have received complete basic immunization. The bivariate analysis indicates a significant relationship between maternal knowledge (p = 0.012), family support (p = 0.001), and access to health services (p = 0.004) with the success of complete basic immunization. Conclusion: Based on the results of the study, maternal knowledge, family support, and access to health services play an important role in improving the success of complete basic immunization.

Abstract

Introduction: Anemia remains a common public health problem among adolescents, characterized by low hemoglobin levels. This group is more vulnerable due to menstruation, rapid growth, and increased iron requirements, which are often not balanced with a healthy diet. Furthermore, the perception of a less-than-ideal body image encourages adolescent girls to restrict their diet, resulting in suboptimal nutritional status. However, nutritional status plays a crucial role in the incidence of anemia because it is related to iron adequacy in the body. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the relationship between nutritional status and the incidence of anemia in adolescent girls as a preventative measure. Objective: This study aims to determine the relationship between nutritional status and the incidence of anemia in adolescent girls. Method The study used an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach, involving 47 grade VIII female adolescents at SMPN 5 Ciamis in 2026, who were taken using simple random sampling. Nutritional status was measured using Body Mass Index for age (BMI/A), while anemia was measured based on hemoglobin levels (Hb <12 g/dL). Data analysis was performed using the Chi-Square test with a significance level of 0.05. Result: The results of the study showed that the majority of respondents had normal nutritional status (48.9%) and did not have anemia (55.3%). However, 38.3% of adolescents had poor nutritional status and 44.7% had anemia. Bivariate analysis revealed a significant association between nutritional status and the prevalence of anemia (p = 0.008). Conclusion: This study confirms that nutritional status plays a crucial role in the development of anemia in adolescent girls. Therefore, schools and health professionals should promote balanced nutrition rich in iron and provide targeted health education about anemia prevention to adolescent girls.
