Mental health has become one of the non-communicable diseases with a globally increasing prevalence. The negative stigma surrounding mental health remains strong in society, making early intervention crucial in preventing more severe mental disorders. The risk perception in seeking medical help for mental health issues needs to be accompanied by adequate mental health literacy. The research variables consist of risk perception to seek medical help and mental health literacy. This study aimed to examine the correlation between risk perception to seek medical help and mental health literacy using a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. A total of 399 respondents participated in the study, selected using an accidental sampling technique. Data collection was conducted using two scales: the Mental Health Literacy in Young Adults scale and the Risk Perception Scale of Medical Help-Seeking Behaviour. The findings indicate that mental health literacy is predominantly in the high category, while the perceived risk of seeking medical help is mostly in the low category. The chi-square statistical test showed a significance value of 0.009 < 0.05, indicating a significant relationship between mental health literacy and the perceived risk of seeking medical help among health students. The practical outcome of this study is anticipated to support universities in formulating policies centered on preventive and promotive mental health strategies, aiming to improve mental health literacy and reduce perceived risks associated with mental health issues.

A great and intelligent generation began during a child's golden period, as early stimulation and nutrition had a significant impact on brain development. During the early breastfeeding phase, approximately 34–94% of women experienced nipple trauma, which potentially reduced breastfeeding continuity. One non-pharmacological therapy alternative was the use of guava leaf gel, which was more practical and easy to apply. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of guava leaf gel on nipple trauma healing. The research was conducted at Midwife's Independent Practice Bidan Eka Setyowati, S.Tr.Keb, in Semarang from October to November 2024, using a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design with a control group. The research sample consisted of a total of 30 postpartum mothers who experienced nipple fissures, selected through purposive sampling. Inclusion criteria consisted of postpartum mothers with healthy, single-born babies who breastfed and experienced grade 2 nipple trauma, while exclusion criteria included mothers with inverted nipples and babies with tongue-tie conditions. The intervention group received breast milk and guava leaf gel applications three times daily for five days, while the control group received only breast milk. Healing was measured using the Nipple Trauma Score (NTS). Data analysis used the Friedman and Wilcoxon tests. The average NTS in the control group was 1.60, while in the intervention group, it was 0.40. Statistical analysis showed a p-value of 0.000 (p<0.05), indicating a significant difference between pre- and post-intervention NTS scores in both groups. It was concluded that guava leaf gel effectively accelerated nipple trauma healing.

Children with autism often face challenges in recognizing and controlling their own bodies, a condition referred to as body awareness. Deficits in body awareness can significantly affect motor skills, nonverbal communication, and social interaction. Despite the importance of this developmental domain, interactive training media tailored to the sensory and cognitive needs of children with autism remain limited. This study aims to develop an Android-based application to enhance body awareness in children with autism through the integration of music, video, and mirror game activities. The research utilized the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) development model. Instruments included expert validation questionnaires for both content and media, as well as user response surveys and comprehension tests administered to 30 children with autism in Metro City. Validation results indicated high feasibility, with ratings of 88.75% from media design experts and 90.00% from content experts. Effectiveness testing revealed a statistically significant improvement in body awareness, with a 20-point gain between pre-test and post-test scores (t = 13.70; p < 0.001; 95% CI: 16.70–23.30). These results suggest that the developed application is a practical, engaging, and effective tool for supporting body awareness development in children with autism, and it may serve as a valuable resource for educators, therapists, and parents.

Childbirth with Sectio Caesarea (SC) has risks, namely slower recovery due to wounds and pain so that the mother cannot care for her baby properly. This condition reduces the mother's confidence in carrying out her role, disrupts the natural attachment process and increases the occurrence of postpartum blues. Psychoeducation is important to prevent this from happening. Effective and easy to understand media regarding psychoeducation for postpartum mothers can be provided through animated videos. Information through animated videos is easier to understand and easier to store in memory for a longer period of time. The aim of this research was to produce animated video-based psychoeducational media. The research uses research and development research methods. The development procedure is carried out through: 1) Preliminary study stage, 2) Media development stage which is divided into 3 parts, namely a) compiling material, b) creating a script and preparing storyboards, c) making and editing videos. Next, validate the assessment by 1 media expert, 2 material experts and 5 post SC mothers in a limited trial to assess the suitability of the educational media created. The research results showed that animated video-based psychoeducation media had a feasibility level of 96 based on media expert assessment, while material expert assessment had a value of 90 and the result of limited trials had a value of 98. Animated video-based psychoeducation media for post-SC mothers is in the very feasible and positif category. Midwives can provide psychoeducation through animated videos.

The high rate of teenage pregnancy is a serious public health issue caused by limited reproductive health knowledge. Inadequate education makes adolescents vulnerable to risky behaviors, emphasizing the need for appropriate approaches, such as audio-visual media, to enhance understanding. This study comprehensively reviews research on reproductive health education for teenage pregnancy prevention. This study employs a literature review method. Data was collected from PubMed, Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, and Science Direct using adolescent reproductive health and teenage pregnancy from September to October 2024. Inclusion criteria included studies in Indonesian or English, empirical studies on reproductive health education interventions, adolescents aged 10–19 years who had never been pregnant, full-text availability, and publications from 2019 to 2024. Of 854 identified articles, 7 met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed using a narrative synthesis approach. Findings indicate that reproductive health education improves adolescents' knowledge and attitudes toward pregnancy prevention. Educational interventions using media such as audio-visual content, comics, and videos are highly effective. Adolescents with previously limited awareness showed significant improvement after receiving reproductive health education. These findings highlight the importance of developing tailored educational strategies, particularly media-based programs, to effectively reduce teenage pregnancy rates

Reproductive and sexual health services for brides-to-be are not evenly distributed at global, national,and regional levels. There are still problems of disparity, quality, and accessibility. The unavailability of policies that regulate the implementation of services is the main obstacle to program implementation.This service is important to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy complications. The government has made efforts to address this through reproductive and sexual health services for cats by improving quality standards and accessibility of services. The study aimed to analyze the implementation of the Reproductive and Sexual Health KIE program for Brides-to-be. This study was a qualitative phenomenological research with the evaluation of the Stuflebeam model program that describes the effectiveness and efficiency of the program holistically. A sample of 16 people was taken by purposive sampling. The data was analyzed with SWOT analysis which became the subject of discussion by the panelists in the decision-making strategy. This research found an important theme,namely the absence of policies that significantly affect the implementation of the program. The results of the SWOT analysis are known to place the organization's position in quadrant 1, a strategy taken by the growth oriented strategy through the innovative model of Catin Sehat Bahagia, Generasi Hebat, Indonesia Maju which supports the pillar of primary service transformation to strengthen preventive promotive activities. Reproductive health services are in a favorable situation,local governments need to develop clear and structured regulations to strengthen the KIE program. Supportive policies will improve access to reproductive health information research.

Anxiety during pregnancy is a prevalent global health concern affecting 15–23% of pregnant women and is associated with adverse outcomes such as preterm birth and impaired fetal development. Non-pharmacological therapies, including aromatherapy and acupressure, have gained popularity due to their low risk of side effects and cost-effectiveness compared to pharmacological interventions. This study aimed to systematically review recent clinical evidence on the efficacy and safety of these therapies in reducing anxiety among pregnant women. This systematic literature review adhered to PRISMA guidelines, with searches conducted across Wiley Online Library, Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct, and Taylor & Francis databases from 2014 to 2024. Keywords included “aromatherapy,” “acupressure,” “anxiety,” and “pregnancy.” Out of 1,614 identified articles, 12 studies met inclusion criteria based on PICOS framework. Study quality was assessed using AMSTAR and the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Aromatherapy significantly reduced anxiety levels through modulation of the limbic system and increased serotonin release. Acupressure applied at specific points was also effective by stimulating endorphin release. Both therapies demonstrated a favorable safety profile without serious adverse effects. Clinical studies conducted in Indonesia further support the feasibility of implementing these interventions within local midwifery care settings. However, protocol heterogeneity and small sample sizes warrant further standardized, large-scale research. Aromatherapy and acupressure are effective, safe, and affordable non-pharmacological interventions for reducing anxiety in pregnant women. Their integration into maternal and child health services requires development of standardized operational procedures, healthcare provider training, and further research to validate long-term efficacy.
