Hubungan Konsumsi Asam Lemak Omega-3, Aktivitas Fisik Dan Persen Lemak Tubuh Dengan Tingkat Dismenore Pada Remaja

Abstract

Background: Dysmenorrhea or menstrual pain was a gynecological complaint due to an imbalance of progesterone in the blood resulting in pain. A woman with dysmenorrhea should consume food rich in omega-3 fatty acids such as fish oil, fish (salmon, tuna, mackerel, herring), soybeans and fruits. Low fish consumption was related with severity of dysmenorrhea. In addition, physical activity and percent body fat were also associated with severity of dysmenorrhea.Objective : To determine the correlation between consumption of omega-3 fatty acids, physical activity and percent body fat to the classification of dysmenorrhea in adolescents.Methods : Cross sectional study of 90 adolescentsselected by purposive sampling. This research was conducted in SMA N 15 and SMA N 9 Semarang. Menstrual history was measured by direct interviews and level of dysmenorrhea was measured using Numerical Rating Scale Questionnaire. Omega-3 fatty acids were measured using Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) and analyzed using a nutritional software program. Physical activity was measured using A short questionnaire for the measurement of habitual physical activity in epidemiological studies. Percent body fat was measured using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA). Data were analyzed by Independent T test/Mann Whitney. Result : There were significant correlation in omega-3 fatty acid (p= 0,015), and percent body fat (p= 0,026). While in physical activity there was no significant correlation (p= 0,394).Conclusion : Consumption of omega-3 fatty acids and percent body fat were associated with the classification of dysmenorrhea.

The influence of physical activity, body mass index and urinary levels of prostaglandin (PGF2α) with the incidence of primary dysmenorrhea in adolescents

“…21 Excess adipose tissue associated with fat in the body will increase the ratio of estrogen and progesterone, some researchers prove that level of estrogen circulating in the luteal phase can increase the production of excessive prostaglandins specifically PGF2α and PGE2. 30 However, this study found no association between overweight and obesity and the development of primary dysmenorrhea. Ideal BMI will reduce the severity of dysmenorrhea.…”

“…This can lead to the hyperplasia of blood vessels or pressure of blood vessels by fat tissue in the female reproductive organs, interrupting the flow of blood during the menstrual process and causing pain during menstruation 21 . Excess adipose tissue associated with fat in the body will increase the ratio of estrogen and progesterone, some researchers prove that level of estrogen circulating in the luteal phase can increase the production of excessive prostaglandins specifically PGF2α and PGE2 30 .

“…Kadar esterogen dan progesteron meningkat menyebabkan produksi prostaglandin tinggi sehingga terjadi peningkatan aktivitas myometrium dan iskemia yang akan memicu timbulnya nyeri dysmenorrhea. 4 Peneliti lain juga sejalan dengan hal tersebut seperti penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Zivanna et al 11 dan Karina et al 12 menyatakan bahwa kelebihan jaringan lemak didalam tubuh memicu terjadinya dysmenorrhea. Hasil penelitian tersebut berbeda dengan penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Gustini et al 13 yang menyatakan bahwa tidak terdapat hubungan bermakna antara masa lemak dengan kejadian dysmenorrhea.…”
