Vulva hygiene (perineal care) is an act of cleansing and nourishing the pubic / female area in post partum mothers especially those who experience perineal wounds. Based on a preliminary study in East Pademawu village, the working area of the Sopa'ah Community Health Center, it was found that the ability of post partum mothers to do vulva hygiene was still low.

This type of research was a correlation study method, with a prospective longitudinal research design (cohort). The samples were all post partum mothers who had perineal rupture / injury in the village of East Pademawu, namely 30 respondents. The independent variable is vulva hygiene, the dependent variable is the healing time of the perineal wound. Vulva hygiene data was collected by giving questionnaires to post partum mothers, while the healing time of perineal wounds was collected using an observation sheet. Then a statistical test was carried out with Logistic Regression. The results of statistical tests with logistic regression showed that vulva hygiene can affect the length of wound healing time by 80.4%. While the significance value is 0,01 or <0.05 with the exponent value B is 0.407. That is, every increase in one unit of vulva hygiene ability can reduce the length of wound healing time by 0.407 days Based on the results of these studies, it is expected that the participation of health workers to further improve counseling in post partum mothers about vulva hygiene.
