Abstract

Background: The frequency of using the antibiotics and antifungals as a treatment of leucorrhea may cause the bacterial and fungal resistance. Therefore, a treatment is not always optimal and sometimes leads the infection to be worsen. The herbal medicine is needed as an alternative treatment. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of using various herbal medicine in the management of leucorrhea. Methodology: The literature review was conducted in several electronic databases i.e., Google Scholar, Science Direct, and PubMed. The protocol for this study was PRISMA. The keywords such as "herbal medicine" and "leucorrhea" or "vaginal infection" were used to select the literatures. This study only selected the studies conducted during 2000 to 2019, presented in English and used clinical trial research design. Results: This study obtained 10 of 5184 total publications from electronic databases. The publication about herbal medicine for leucorrhea, both of herbal medicine and placebo, herbal medicine compared to conventional medicine and herbal medicine combined with conventional medicine showed that herbal medicine could reduce the symptoms and complaints of leucorrhea which had the ability to be an antimicrobial agent. In contrast, 2 studies revealed the side effects of herbal medicine, i.e., irritation, vomiting, and dry vagina. Conclusion: Herbal medicine was effective as a treatment of leucorrhea and had the prospect to develop as a complementary therapy for treating the leucorrhea.

Abstract

Background: The global prevalence of the second degree of the perineal wound of postpartum mothers is 73.4%. Pharmacological treatments have a cytotoxic effect. Other treatments is non-pharmacological treatments are such as using decoc on waters of binahong leaves and red betel leaves. Both have compounds that accelerate epithelializa on of wounds. This study aims to analyze the differences of the perineal wound recovery period of postpartum mothers between the decoc on water treatments of binahong leaves compared to red betel leaves. Methods: This study is a quasi-experiment post-test only without control group design. There are 32 respon- dents mee ng the inclusion criteria who are taken by accidental sampling. The sample is divided equally into two groups, namely binahong group and the red betel group. Binahong or red betel leaf decoc on waters are used for genital washing a er urina ng at the last rinse at 7 am and 3 pm on 1-3 postpartum days. Perineal wound recovery is assessed by using the REEDA score from the second postpartum day un l the wound fully recovered. Sta s c analysis with chi-square, me series analysis, Mann Whitney and Kruskal Wallis test. Results: The average of perineal wound recovery period of binahong group is 6 days, while the red betel group is 4.69 days. There are significant differences of perineal wound recovery period between the binahong group and the red betel group with a p-value of 0.0001 < ? (0.05). Respondents? characteris cs are age, BMI, frequency of changing pads, and educa onal background between binahong and red betel groups have no significant differ- ences. Conclusion: Red betel leaf decoc on water is recommended for postpartum mothers suffering perineal wounds. Further research is needed with a larger number of respondents and true experiments are needed to analyze the effect of red betel leaves on perineal pain, platelets, and leukocyte level.
