Menstrual pain is called dysmenorrhea; 15% of women who experience menstrual pain feel uncomfortable. Savitri & Swari (2020) stated that menstrual pain occurs 1-2 days before menstruation appears and continues until the third day of menstruation or the end. Some studies declare that ginger water decoction can reduce menstrual pain or dysmenorrhea. In vitro and in vivo, ginger has been shown to have antimicrobial, antifungal, anthelmintic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, immunomodulatory, antilipidemic, analgesic properties, and protective effects on the digestive tract. Likewise, cinnamon and cloves can relieve toothache. This research method uses a quasi-experimental design with control by giving ginger and cinnamon spice drinks. The population of this study was women aged 19-21 years who experienced menstrual pain with a large sample of the results of the calculation of the average difference test in two pairs of groups, which were 30 respondents in each group, both intervention, and control. The study found that a spiced drink consisting of red ginger, cloves, and cinnamon and given honey positively affected menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea) with the p-value. There is an effect of a spiced drink consisting of red ginger, cloves, and cinnamon and given honey on menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea).

As an alternative to providing energy during late pregnancy and childbirth, dates give many benefits, such as assisting contractions. Dates have high carbohydrate content so that fatigue that occurs during labor, especially in the active phase, can be reduced. By dividing the sample into two groups, namely the experimental group and the control group, the intervention of date palm juice was seen based on the duration of the active phase of labor. It was known that the experimental group had a shorter duration of labor than that of the control group with a p value equal to 0.000. Therefore, date juice is proven to shorten the duration of active phase labor.
