As many as 2.7 million people in 2016 were found by mothers giving birth with perineal lacerations and it is estimated that by 2050 this will increase to 6.3 million. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of a decoction of cinnamon and binahong leaf tea in healing perineal lacerations in postpartum women at the Sunartik clinic.

The data analysis used was paired sample t test with a significance level of 95% (0.05). The results of the study obtained a sig value of 0.000 with a mean of 3.800 and CI (2.408-5.192).
