Educational Action Efforts to Increase Adolescents' Understanding of the Importance of Nutritional Status and Personal Hygiene in Reproductive Health
Keywords:
Education, Nutritional status, Personal hygiene, AdolescentsAbstract
Nutritional status and personal hygiene are important indicators for achieving optimal reproductive health. Nutritional status is a description of the fulfillment of balanced nutritional needs. Adolescents who do not get enough nutrition can experience disturbances in the development of their reproductive system, including menstrual problems, infertility and pregnancy problems. Problems with the nutritional status of adolescents in Indonesia are quite serious, such as cases of anemia reaching 32% and chronic energy deficiency (CED) reaching 36.3%. In adolescents, especially young women aged 15 to 19 years, the prevalence of CED in Metro City reaches 14.45%. Nutritional problems experienced by adolescents are more due to wrong perceptions among adolescents, especially young women who say "thin is beautiful". On the other hand, personal hygiene in adolescents is important, especially in keeping themselves healthy and reducing the risk of disease. For teenagers maintaining personal hygiene can increase productivity. Maintaining personal hygiene has a positive impact such as improving health status, preventing disease, increasing self-confidence and creating beauty. This educational activity is a collaboration between the Metro Campus Midwifery Study Program and the Mulyojati Health Center. Through educational activities for 35 grade VII junior high school students, in addition to increasing adolescent knowledge (mean from 62.48 to 78.86), it is hoped that adolescents will be able to adopt a healthy lifestyle focused on maintaining nutritional status and applying personal hygiene in everyday life.
