Anxiety is a psychological issue that is often experienced by young women, particularly when dealing with academic demands, social pressures, and the physical changes that occur during puberty. In addition, irregular menstrual cycles are a common problem faced by many young women, which can have long-term impacts on their reproductive health. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between anxiety levels and the menstrual cycle in adolescent girls at SMPN 3 Cianjur in 2024. The research uses a Stratified random sampling method, involving 80 adolescent girls who experience both anxiety disorders and menstrual cycle irregularities. Data collection was carried out using primary data obtained directly from participants, utilizing the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HRS-A) questionnaire and a menstrual cycle questionnaire. The statistical analysis involved both univariate and bivariate techniques, with a chi-square test employed to examine the relationship between the two variables. The results of the chi-square test showed a significance value of 0.675, indicating that there is no significant relationship between anxiety levels and menstrual cycle irregularities in the adolescent girls at SMPN 3 Cianjur. This study contributes to the understanding of the psychological and physiological challenges faced by adolescents, and highlights the need for further research to explore other factors that may influence menstrual health and mental well-being. Given the findings, this study recommends that future research consider including additional variables such as lifestyle factors or hormonal imbalances that could provide deeper insights into the relationship between mental health and reproductive health.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease in its treatment requires the ability to comply with the management recommended by the doctor. Diabetes mellitus treatment is influenced by the level of self-empowerment of each individual. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between self-empowerment and stress levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Method: This type of research is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional approach. The number of respondents in this study was 109 people, with a sampling technique using purposive sampling because not all samples had criteria that matched the researcher's assumptions. The data obtained were analyzed using the somers’d test. Results: Based on the results of the somers’d test, the results obtained were that the most respondents had high self-empowerment, as many as 53 respondents (48,6%). The highest stress level was in the mild stress category, as many as 53 respondents (48,6%). The results of the statistical test obtained a p value of 0.000 (<0,05), which means that there is a relationship between self-empowerment and stress levels and the correlation coefficient number is -0.746, which means that the relationship is very strong and the direction is negative (opposite). Conclusion: There is a perfect relationship between self-empowerment and stress levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

This community service aims to accompany the halal certification process for Mr. Ngadinu's tempeh MSMEs on Jalan Mustokoweni, Plombokan Village, North Semarang District. This assistance is carried out because these MSMEs do not yet have a halal certificate, so they have not been able to increase production quantity and competitiveness in the market.
