Introduction: Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is a common vaginal condition produced by overgrowth of anaerobic bacteria. Stress can alter women’s reproductive health in many ways; one of them is increasing the risk for bacterial vaginosis. In facing stressful life conditions, resilience plays an important role to maintain optimal function and prevent traumatic experience. Methods: This research was an analytical observational study with cross sectional design. Questionnaires were given to 104 women in reproductive age between November 2013 and January 2014. Resilience and stress were assessed using The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and Self Reporting Questionnaire respectively, and bacterial vaginosis status was diagnosed using Amsel’s criteria. Statistical analysis was performed using chi square test and multiple logistic regressions. Results: Bivariate analysis showed significant relations between resilience (p=0,005), stress (p=0,002), frequency of sexual intercourse within 1 week (p= 0,015) and the bacterial vaginosis incidence. Multivariate analysis showed stress was the most influential factor OR=3,9 (95% CI=1,478–10,562). Discussion: Resilience and stress were significantly with increased risk of having bacterial vaginosisKeywords: resilience, stress, bacterial vaginosis, reproductive age women

Abstract Background: Prevalence of obesity in adult females in Indonesia is 32,9% in 2013. Hormonal contraceptives (pills, injections and implants) are widely used by reproductive-age women in Indonesia, and the prevalence is 45%. Objective: The aim of this study is to identify whether reproductive-age women who use hormonal contraceptives are at risk of developing obesity compared to WUS who do not use hormonal contraceptives. Method: The design of this study is a cross sectional study using secondary data (5th Indonesia Family Life Survey, and the sample is reproductive-age women (15-49 years old) consisting of 6045 respondents. The variables of this study are obesity, hormonal contraceptive use, age, education, occupation, and duration of contraceptive use. Data were analysed by using Cox Regression. Result: The results of bivariate analysis showed that hormonal contaceptive use, age, education, occupation, and duration of contraceptive use were associated with obesity among reproductive-age womenand statistically significant (P-Value <0,05). Multivariate analysis showed that hormonal contraceptive use did not increase the risk of obesity among reproductive-age women in Indonesia (PR 0.939; CI 95% 0.869 - 1.013). Conclusion: The use of hormonal contraception did not increase the risk of obesity among reproductive-age women. Key words: Hormonal Contraception; Obesity; Reproductive Age-Women Abstrak Latar belakang : Prevalensi obesitas pada perempuan dewasa di Indonesia sebesar 32,9 persen pada tahun 2013. Kontrasepsi hormonal (pil, suntikan dan implan) merupakan jenis kontrasepsi yang paling banyak digunakan oleh wanita usia subur (WUS) di Indonesia, dengan prevalensi sebesar 45%. Tujuan : untuk mengetahui apakah wanita usia subur (WUS) yang menggunakan kontrasepsi hormonal berisiko mengalami obesitas dibandingkan WUS yang tidak menggunakan kontrasepsi hormonal.  Metode : Desain penelitian ini adalah studi cross- sectional dengan menggunakan data sekunder IFLS 5 tahun 2014. Sampel adalah WUS (15-49 tahun) sebanyak 6.045 responden. Variabel dalam penilitian ini adalah obesitas pada WUS, penggunaan kontrasepsi hormonal, umur, pendidikan, pekerjaan, serta lama penggunaan kontrasepsi. Analisis data yang digunakan adalah Cox Regression. Hasil : Hasil analisis bivariat menunjukkan bahwa variabel penggunaan kontrasepsi hormonal, umur, pendidikan dan status pekerjaan, serta  lama penggunaan kontrasepsi berhubungan dengan obesitas pada WUS (p-value <0,05).

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common of the vaginitides affecting women of reproductive age. It appears to be due to an alteration in the vaginal ecology by which Lactobacillus spp., the predominant organisms in the healthy vagina, are replaced by a mixed flora including Prevotella bivia, Prevotella disiens, Porphyromonas spp., Mobiluncus spp., and Peptostreptococcus spp. All of these organisms except Mobiluncus spp. are also members of the endogenous vaginal flora. While evidence from treatment trials does not support the notion that BV is sexually transmitted, recent studies have shown an increased risk associated with multiple sexual partners. It has also been suggested that the pathogenesis of BV may be similar to that of urinary tract infections, with the rectum serving as a reservoir for some BV-associated flora. The organisms associated with BV have also been recognized as agents of female upper genital tract infection, including pelvic inflammatory disease, and the syndrome BV has been associated with adverse outcome of pregnancy, including premature rupture of membranes, chorioamnionitis, and fetal loss; postpartum endometritis; cuff cellulitis; and urinary tract infections. The mechanisms by which the BV-associated flora causes the signs of BV are not well understood, but a role for H2O2-producing Lactobacillus spp. in protecting against colonization by catalase-negative anaerobic bacteria has been recognized. These and other aspects of BV are reviewed.

Waist circumference, and neck circumference correlated to total cholesterol among reproductive-age women with obesityBackground: Dyslipidemia is a metabolic disorder condition that is closely related to cholesterol and obesity. The prevalence of obesity in reproductive-age women (>18 years) in Indonesia increased dramatically. Reproductive age women with obesity are at greater risk of hypercholesterolemia compared with non-obese. Waist circumference (WC), mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC), and neck circumference (NC) can be used as a marker of higher or low cholesterol levels. Objective: This study aimed to determine the relationship between WC, MUAC, and NC with total cholesterol. Methods: The study design was cross-sectional with several subjects were 54 women of reproductive-aged 18-29 years. Subject with obese category (BMI ≥25kg/m2) was measured the WC, MUA, and NC as an independent variable and total cholesterol as the dependent variable, and dietary intake (total fat, cholesterol, and saturated fat) as confounding variables. The bivariate analysis used the Pearson correlation test. Multivariate analysis used multivariate linear regression. Results: Bivariate analysis showed there was a significant relationship between WC and NC to total cholesterol (p=0.006 and p=0.001), but not on MUAC (p=0.063). In multivariate analysis, NC is the most significantly related to total cholesterol (β=0.367; p=0.004; Adjusted R Square 24%) than WC. Conclusions: There is a significant relationship between WC and NC to the total cholesterol in women of reproductive age obesity. NC more significantly related to total cholesterol.

Background: Overweight/obesity has become a global health problem for both developed and developing regions. Nowadays, overweight/obesity among childrearing-age women has become rapidly increasing in both urban and rural areas. Aim: This study aimed to assess the variation of overweight/obesity among urban and rural reproductive-age women in Ethiopia. Methods: For this study, the 2016 Ethiopia Demographic and Health Survey data were used. The survey was a community-based cross-sectional study, which used a two-stage stratified cluster sampling technique to select the participants. A total of 13,451 reproductive-age women were included in the analysis. Both descriptive and analytical analysis was performed. A p-value of less than 0.05 was used as the measure of statistical significance. Results: The prevalence of overweight/obesity among urban reproductive-age women was statistically higher ( p = 21.5%; 95% confidence interval (CI): 18.2–25.1) than the rural women ( p = 3.5%; 95% CI: 2.9%–4.2%). Women who attend secondary or above education, women in the age groups 25–34 and ≥ 35 years, and high wealth index (rich) had higher odds of overweight/obesity in both urban and rural women. Moreover, women who were married, who had a large family size, and who have a history of alcohol intake had higher odds of overweight/obesity among urban women. Conclusions: Overweight/obesity among reproductive-age women is a public health problem in Ethiopia, especially for women who are living in urban settings. Therefore, it is important to establish targeted overweight reduction programs with particular emphasis on urban, older aged, educated, and married women. Additionally, encouraging the limitation of the number of family size and alcohol intake can reduce women’s overweight/obesity.

Background: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrinopathy in women of reproductive age, affecting 5-20% of women worldwide. Hyperandrogenism, as the primary characteristic of PCOS, is not always present in every patient. The hyperandrogenic phenotype of PCOS patients is influenced by both hormonal and metabolic dysfunctions. Therefore, this study aims to determine the correlation between hormone profile, lipid profile, and clinical profile with free testosterone index in subjects with PCOS. Methods: This prospective cross-sectional study was conducted in the Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital between July 2014 and December 2016. The study involved 76 women with PCOS, who were classified into 2 subgroups: 39 subjects in the hyperandrogenism group and 37 subjects in the non-hyperandrogenism group. Each subject underwent physical examination, blood sample collection, and USG examination. Bivariate analysis was done using independent t-tests and Mann Whitney U-tests, while multivariate analysis was done using logistic regression. Results: Triglyceride and testosterone level showed weak (r = 0.232, p = 0.044) and moderate (r = 0.460, p ¡ 0.001) positive correlation with FTI, while SHBG level showed moderate negative correlation (r = -0.483, p ¡ 0.001). Triglyceride was also found to be determinant of hyperandrogenism condition in PCOS patient (OR 0.02, 95% CI 0.00–0.04, p = 0.013). However, there was no significant difference observed between FGS and hyperandrogenism (p = 0.43). Conclusions: Triglycerides, testosterone, and SHBG were associated with hyperandrogenism in PCOS patients, while FGS showed no such association.

The Polycystic ovarian syndrome affects 6-15 % of reproductive age women worldwide. And recently the changing life styles and rising obesity worldwide have contributed to a rise in the incidence of PCOS. Though there are many issues with PCOS post conception. PCOS women are at increased risk of early pregnancy loss which is approx. three fold as compared to the women without PCOS. After successfully crossing the first trimester, they are at risk of developing pre- eclampsia, GDM, preterm birth and birth of small for gestational age infant. Also higher incidence of multiple pregnancies is there and the risks associated with them. All these leading to higher rate of c -section delivery. So, proper understanding of these risks, informing and counseling the patients regarding them facilitate closer maternal and fetal surveillance and help improving the outcome of pregnancy.

Aging is a natural process that can not be avoided, running continuously, and continuously. Based on population projection data the number of elderly people will increase where the most number is found at the age of 60-64 years 94,012 people. Increasing age decreases bodily functions, decreased organ function and changes in blood pressure, therefore the elderly are advised to check their blood pressure regularly. As they age, blood pressure in the elderly will increase so that there is a higher risk of developing hypertension. Hypertension is a major health problem throughout the world, causing a high prevalence and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Some things that need to be considered in an effort to control hypertension include regular exercise, adequate rest, medical, traditional, regulate diet and reduce salt consumption one teaspoon per day. The purpose of this study was to determine the determinants and factors associated with efforts to control hypertension in the elderly at PSTW Budi Luhur, Jambi City. The research method uses descriptive analysis design with cross sectional approach. Samples were conducted for the elderly with hypertension. The research instrument was in the form of questionnaire sheets by interview. The results obtained 40% of elderly people have a history of smoking, 45% are quite good in consuming food, 60% elderly with moderate activity and 60% elderly are good in controlling hypertension. The results of bivariate analysis showed that there was no correlation between determinant factors (smoking history, food consumption, physical activity) and hypertension control efforts in the elderly in PSTW Budi Luhur, Jambi City

Background. It is estimated that more than 142 million married women in developing countries have an unmet need for family planning. This study is aimed at identifying factors associated with the unmet need of family planning among married women of reproductive age in Toke Kutaye district, Ethiopia in 2019. Methods. A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in Toke Kutaye district from March 1–30, 2019. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select 494 reproductive-age women who were married during data collection. Data were collected using a pretested structured questionnaire. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to assess factors associated with the unmet need of family planning at 95% CI with a p value of ≤ 0.05. Result. The prevalence of unmet need for family planning in the Toke Kutaye district was 23.1% [95% CI (19.2-26.7)], with 15.2% for spacing and 7.9% for limiting. Women’s education [AOR, 3.64, 95% CI: 1.43-9.25], number of living children [AOR, 2.63, 95% CI: 1.37-5.05], husband disapproval of family planning [AOR, 3.68, 95% CI: 2.20-6.16], and discussion with healthcare providers on family planning [AOR, 0.20, 95% CI: 0.13-0.37] were significantly associated with unmet need for family planning. Conclusion. The prevalence of unmet need for family planning was high. Therefore, program managers, partners, and health workers should work to address the gaps in maternal education, the number of living children, partner disapproval of family planning, and discussion on family planning issues through enhancing female education, awareness on family planning, and male involvement in family planning services.
