Abstract

Dysmenorrhoea is lower abdominal pain caused by uterine muscle contractions and is a common problem among adolescents. In 2020, Indonesia reported that 64.25% of adolescents experienced dysmenorrhoea. Effective management is essential because dysmenorrhoea can negatively affect adolescents’ daily activities and concentration during learning. One non-pharmacological technique that can be used is acupressure at the hegu (LI4) and sanyinjiao (SP6) points combined with lemon aromatherapy. This study aimed to analyse the effectiveness of acupressure at the LI4 and SP6 points combined with lemon aromatherapy in reducing primary dysmenorrhoea among adolescents. This quantitative study employed a quasi-experimental design with 36 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The intervention consisted of applying pressure to the LI4 and SP6 points for 30 minutes and administering lemon aromatherapy by diluting 3 drops of lemon essential oil in 10 ml of water, carried out once daily for two days starting from the onset of dysmenorrhoea. The results showed that acupressure at both the hegu and sanyinjiao points combined with lemon aromatherapy significantly reduced dysmenorrhoea, with no significant difference in effectiveness between the two points (p = 0.486). Schools support the use of acupressure and lemon aromatherapy as an accessible and non-pharmacological method to help adolescents manage dysmenorrhoea.

Abstract

Cigarettes remains a significant public health concern with broad health, social, and economic consequences. Despite continuous awareness efforts, smoking prevalence has not declined substantially, particularly among adolescents who represent a high-risk group. Research focusing on adolescent smoking is therefore essential to prevent long-term health and social harms and to inform evidence-based health, educational, and social interventions. This study applied a descriptive cross-sectional design involving 119 high school students selected through cluster random sampling. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using univariate and bivariate methods with the Chi-square test. The findings indicated a nearly equal proportion of adolescents with smoking and non-smoking family members. Negative perceptions of smoking hazards were slightly more prevalent than positive perceptions, while most respondents perceived the implementation of Smoke-Free Areas in schools as adequate. Bivariate analysis demonstrated no significant association between family smoking behavior and adolescents’ perceptions of smoking (p = 0.360). These results underscore the need for comprehensive and collaborative prevention strategies involving families, schools, communities, and policymakers to reduce smoking initiation and protect adolescent health in the long term.
