Menstrual pain or dysmenorrhea is felt by many young women and this can hinder their activities, including learning tasks at school and at home. Therefore, alternatives to overcome pain are always being developed, one of which in this study is the red fruit extract which is known to contain vitamin E with tocopherol as a substance that can inhibit inflammation. Using a pre- and posttest design, this study was divided into two samples (respondents), namely the intervention group by giving red fruit extract for 3 menstrual cycles and the control group that was without treatment. This study used measuring instrument in form of the observation sheet and a numeric rating scale (NRS) 0-10 for pain scale. Processing and data analysis used the SPSS program through editing, coding, scoring, and tabulating activities. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis and bivariate analysis with independent smaple t-test, Kolmogorov Smirnov and Mann-Whitney. The results obtained were that there was a change in the majority of respondents in the intervention group from the majority of pain in the moderate category to the mild category. These results were significantly different when looking at the results in the control group. Therefore, red fruit extract is recommended to be a useful alternative in reducing menstrual pain.

Background/Aims: Acupuncture and moxibustion, when used together, have act mechanically and thermally on treated reflexological areas. The main goal of this work was to evaluate the effects of acupuncture and moxibustion on the electrophysiological properties of the ulnar nerve. Methods: Electrical stimulation was applied to the ulnar nerve above the epi­condyle of 28 volunteers. A 20-V potential was applied, and after each 10 impulses it was increased by 10 V, up to a maximum of 80 V. At 20 and 80 V, the participants were asked to rate the discomfort from 0 to 10 on a Numeric Rating Scale for pain. After the first stimulation and data collection, the control group rested for 6 min, while the intervention group was submitted to acupuncture and moxibustion on Lingdao (HT 4). Following this period of time, a second electrical stimulation was performed on both groups. Results: The discomfort was greater in the intervention group during the second stimulation. The stimulus required to achieve the maximum amplitude decreased, but the changes were only statistically significant in the intervention group (p = 0.006). An increase in latency and a decrease in reaction velocity were noticed between the first and the second stimulation for both groups; however, only the control group presented statistically significant differences (p = 0.018 and p = 0.022, respectively). Conclusions: Acupuncture and moxibustion on HT 4 increased the electrical sensitivity, decreased the stimulus intensity to achieve the maximum amplitude, and avoided a significant increase in latency and decrease in reaction velocity in two consecutive electrical stimulations.

Childbirth and birth is a physiological process that must be experienced by a mother. Pain during labor is caused by the first stage of labor in which contractions cause dilation and thinning of the cervix and uterine ischemia due to contraction of the myometrial arteries. These contractions cause the opening of the cervix to begin labor. Various attempts are made to reduce labor pain, both pharmacologically and non-pharmacological. The non-pharmacological method applied is a distraction with birth balls. The research aims to prove the effectiveness of the use of birthing ball on the reduction of labor pain in the first stage of labor in the active phase. This study used an experimental research design with a pretest-posttest control group design. The research sample was 20 maternity mothers at the Lompoe Health Center, who received treatment and 20 people as control samples. It applied the purposive sampling technique. The instrument of observation was the pain scale using the Faces Pain Rating Scale. Data processing using the Wilcoxon-test to determine the effect of the treatment given. Based on the results of the bivariate analysis showed that the value of Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) is <0,001. Therefore,  the value of Sig<0,001 <value of α=0.05 which means that Ha was accepted. In conclusion, there is an influence of using the birthing ball to reduce the level of pain in the first stage of labor in the active mother.
