Implementation of Reproductive Health Gymnastics Against Female Adolescents Hemoglobin Level

Abstract

Anemia in female adolescent has a risk to women's health, both short and long term which will disrupt the life cycle of women. Reproductive health exercises adopted from aerobics and SKJ 2012 are believed to be good physical activity choices, especially for female adolescents to deal with anemia problems. The purpose of this study was to prove the implementation of reproductive health exercise on the hemoglobin levels of female adolescents. This study used 30 respondents as research subjects. The intervention group was given reproductive health exercises and Fe tablets for 4 weeks with a duration of 18 minutes 3 times a week. Blood collection are namely before after treatment and menstruation. The results of this study found an increase in hemoglobin levels. The average increase in hemoglobin level from 10.43 gr/dL to 13.98 gr /dL with an increase of 3.54 gr /dL, by statistical test there was a significant difference in p-value <0.05. Meanwhile, the mean hemoglobin level of the intervention group with control was different with p-value <0.05. The conclusion of this study proves that the implementation of reproductive health exercise has an effect on the hemoglobin level of female adolescents.

The effect of giving combination boiled chicken egg and red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) to increase hemoglobin levels in women during menstruation

“…The results of the present investigation agree with those obtained by Yun et al 30 where the amount of iron absorbed from consumed eggs may significantly increase by consuming food or drink containing vitamin C (ascorbic acid) at the same meal. Ascorbic acid accelerates absorption in the process of hemoglobin formation 31 . Ascorbic acid may reduce ferric iron to ferrous iron and bind it in soluble complexes which are available for absorption 14 .…”

The Effect of Reproductive Health Gymnastics on Hemoglobin Levels of Female Adolescents

“…Based on research conducted by Sarah in the intervention group which was carried out for 4 weeks by being given Fe tablets and reproductive health exercises with a duration of 15-20 minutes 3 times a week. There was an increase in hemoglobin levels from an average of 10.43 gr/dL to 13.98 gr/dL, thus the effect of reproductive health exercise on adolescent hemoglobin levels at SMP 26 Semarang in 2019 19 .…”

“…Physical activity is an activity that can improve health status if it is done regularly, routinely and repeatedly. Physical activity that is in great demand by young women is gymnastics 18,19 .One of the exercises that teenagers can do to increase their hb level is by doing reproductive health exercises. Reproductive health exercise is a physical exercise adopted from aerobics and SKJ (Physical Fitness Exercises) in 2012 which requires sufficient oxygen to get a source of energy (Sarah et al, 2019).…”
