Abstract

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) occurs about 75% in women of reproductive age. The impact of anxiety symptoms experienced during PMS is that it can interfere with daily activities both academic, work, family and social problems. The PMS symptom reduction strategy carried out in this study was the Young Women Class with the guidance of a Young Women Class Implementation Module which was created by the researcher containing Stress Management Materials, Personal Hygiene Guidelines and Yoga Exercises for teenagers. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of female adolescent class on reducing anxiety symptoms of premenstrual syndrome in female adolescents in 2021. The research method used a quasiexperimental design with a pretest-pottest with control design. This Young Women class starts after menstruation is over. Therapy is given once a month and observed 4 weeks later. Reassessment (post test) of premenstrual syndrome anxiety by using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) on the respondents of both groups. The results showed that most of the control group had a menstrual period of less than 7 days (70%), and had no history of PMS (56.7%). Likewise with the intervention group, most of the menstruation was less than 7 days (60%), and had no history of PMS (83.3%). There was a significant difference in the level of PMS anxiety reduction between the intervention and control groups, where the difference in the mean before and after the intervention in the form of regular counseling in the control group was only 0.97, while in the intervention group that carried out the Young Women's Class program it was 5.94. Based on the results of data analysis with the Mann Whitney test, a significance value of 0.000 was obtained. Based on this value, because the p value < 0.005, it can be concluded that the Young Women Class has an effect on reducing PMS anxiety. The results of the multivariate analysis showed that the adolescents who did not attend the class had a higher anxiety level of 5.88 than those who attended the female youth class and those who had menstruated for more than 7 days experienced a higher anxiety level of 0.76 than those who had menstruation for less than 7 days. 7 days. It is recommended that midwife education and services can develop midwifery care on adolescent reproductive health in achieving optimal health status for adolescents, so that it becomes an investment to prepare for the process of pregnancy and give birth to a quality generation.
