JAKARTA - Youth is an important phase for boys and girls to understand their bodies and learn various factors that have a negative impact on reproductive health.

Some of the reproductive problems that commonly occur in adolescents include premature or prematureulants, sexually transmitted infections (IMS), amenore (no menstruation), unplanned pregnancy, and menstrual disorders.

Therefore, it is important for teenagers to have knowledge of contraception, prevention of IMS, and healthy relationships.

According to various studies, about half of cases of HIV infection occur in the age group of 15 to 24 years. Therefore, education about the body, sexuality, contraceptives, pregnancy, and other health issues is very important for the younger generation.

"Grema is a time when girls or boys enter retirement, namely the process when the body undergoes physical changes as part of the transition to adults who are able to reproduce sexually," explained Dr. Suhasini Inamdar, Consultant of Obstetric & Gynecology at Motherhood Hospitals, Indiranagar, Bangalore, quoted from the Hindustan Times page.

"This is a very important time because teens experience rapid, cognitive, and psychosocial growth." he continued.

Here are 10 common signs of reproductive health disorders in adolescents described by Dr. Inamdar and Dr. Rolika Keshri, Senior Consultant for Obstetric & Gynecology at CARE Hospitals, Hi-Tec City, Hyderabad:

1.Pubertas Late

Sexual developments usually occur within a certain period of time. If the production of the hormone testosterone in boys or estrogen in girls is delayed,nicity can come later than it should be.

2. Hipogonadism in Men

This condition occurs when the testes are unable to produce the hormone testosterone which is very important in the growth and development of masculine things during menstruation.

3. Early Pubertas

Pubertas who come too fast is called early maturity. This means that sexual maturity occurs earlier than normal. For example, before the age of 8 years in girls or before 9 years in boys.

4. Amenore

Amenore is a condition when a girl is not menstruating. The cause can be due to hormonal imbalance, congenital disorder, lack of exercise, or unhealthy diet. Problems in the reproductive tract can also be a factor.

5. Implementation of abnormal Rahim

Teenage girls often experience irregular or prolonged bleeding from the uterus. This usually occurs when the ovaries do not release eggs (analvolution), which causes the volume of menstrual blood to become too much or less.

6. Menstruation Cycle Irregular Or Not Existing

Some teenagers tend to experience a menstrual cycle that is usually not accompanied by ovulation, causing irregularities. However, this condition will generally improve by itself without treatment in a few months or years.

7. Polictic Ovarium Syndrome (PCOS)

Common causes of irregular or slight menstruation. Other symptoms can be in the form of acne, weight gain, excess hair growth on the face and chest (hysutism), and fertility disorders. Generally, this condition can be treated with lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, diet regulation, and weight loss.

8. Haid's pain is excessive (Dismenore)

Severe menstrual conditions before or during menstruation can be a serious problem for young women. The causes can be mild, such as normal ovulation, to conditions such as endometrosis. Treatment can be done with pain relievers, counseling, home remedies, warm compresses, to the use of contraceptive pills or surgical actions if needed.

9. Hygiene Is Not Normal

Whiteness that is colored, smells, or has an unusual texture and accompanied by itching or wound can indicate infection or other health problems. Sexually transmitted diseases (PMS) are often the cause, so it is important to consult a doctor.

10. Abnormal growth

The presence of cysts or lumps in the reproductive area such as ovarian cysts, tumors, uterine mioms, or lumps in the breast (fibrodenoma) needs further examination by medical personnel.

In addition, cervical cancer vaccination is highly recommended for women aged 9 to 45 years to prevent cervical cancer in the future. It is important to remember that the symptoms above can also be caused by other conditions that are not always related to reproductive disorders.
