PENCEGAHAN STUNTING MELALUI PENYULUHAN KESEHATAN REPRODUKSI DAN GIZI PADA ANAK REMAJA DI SMKM WELERI

Abstract

One of the efforts to reduce and prevent stunting is to prepare adolescents with knowledge related to pre-marital preparation with an understanding of reproductive health and healthy nutrition. Nutritional intake in adolescents can also affect fertility, which is the optimal functioning of the reproductive system in both men and women. One of the problems of adolescent reproductive health is having free sex or premarital sex where one of the effects is that it can give birth to children at risk of stunting. The methods used in this community service activity include lectures, question and answer, and interactive discussions. The activity was carried out on December 17 2022 in the multipurpose room/hall of SMK Muhammadiyah 1 Weleri which was attended by a number of representatives from class X to XII with a total of 102 students. Presentation of material was given by Wynne Frederica, S.E,.BBA as the national stunting reduction ambassador regarding the ins and outs of stunting, adolescent reproductive health by Yulia Ardiyanti, and nutrition in adolescents by Triya Ulva Kusuma. This Community Service activity provides youth with an understanding of the importance of maintaining reproductive health and healthy nutritional intake as an effort to minimize underage pregnancies to prevent stunting.
