Stretchmark, Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO)Abstract
Stretchmark are a common skin issue experienced by women after pregnancy and childbirth, both vaginally and via Cesarean section. Stretchmark s can appear darker in multigravid women with dark or black skin tones. Approximately 90% of women develop striae gravidarum. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of virgin coconut oil (VCO) on the fading of Stretchmark s in postpartum mothers at the Dr. Rida Ramadhana Maternity Clinic in Kampar Regency. The research method used was a quasi-experiment involving two groups, an experimental group and a control group, each consisting of 12 postpartum mothers. The intervention involved the application of Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) twice daily, after morning and afternoon showers, for 7 days in the experimental group. The results showed that before the application of VCO, the majority of postpartum mothers in both the experimental group (66.7%) and the control group (75%) had Stretchmark s in the moderate category. After the application of VCO, the majority of postpartum mothers in the experimental group had mild Stretchmark s, with 6 respondents (50%), while in the control group that did not receive VCO, the majority remained in the moderate category with 7 respondents (58.3%). There was a significant effectiveness of virgin coconut oil application on the fading of Stretchmark s in postpartum mothers with a p-value of 0.007 (p<0.05). This research is expected to serve as a reference for healthcare practitioners in implementing non-pharmacological therapies to fade Stretchmark s in postpartum mothers.
