Abstract
Background : Pre-Menstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a collection of symptoms that often appear and occur in young women, especially in school-age adolescent girls who are very disturbing in the process of learning activities. The survey results show that the average school attendance rate for young women is <90%. Some of the causes are complaints of pain due to menstrual pain, headaches, or lack of enthusiasm during class. It is necessary to form a peer team as a counselor to prevent and reduce PMS symptoms. It is expected to be a solution to several PMS disorders that affect student absenteeism at school.
Methods : The method of implementing the activities of forming and assisting the peer counselor team includes preparation, implementation, and evaluation. Practice includes field preparation, materials, and participants. Performance includes pre-test followed by training and ends post-test. After completing the training, a peer counselor team was assigned to carry out counseling on PMS. Mentoring and monitoring were carried out when they provided counseling activities based on peer information data about their PMS. Next is the implementation of activity evaluation.
Results : The training results stated that 7 participants in Mitra 1 experienced a significant increase in knowledge. Mira 2, as many as 6 participants showed a considerable difference in the value098 of understanding between the pre-test and post-test. The activities carried out in conducting counselors to peers during the mentoring show that 36 peers from Partner 1 received PMS symptom management by participants. In contrast, from Partner 2, 22 peers had all been carried out well.
Conclusion : The evaluation results showed a relatively high level of satisfaction and hoped there would be similar activities with the theme of preventing COVID-19. In realizing healthy for students, it is necessary to have a policy and form another counselor theme team following the health needs of the school.
