Article Information  Abstract 

  According to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2021, the highest mothers’ 

mortality rate cases occurred in Africa with 525 deaths per 100,000 live births and 

the lowest was in Europe with 13 deaths per 100,000 live births. The most common 

cause of mothers mortality rate in Indonesia in 2019 was caused by several cases 

such as bleeding (30.32%). Uterine atony occurs due to failure of uterine 

contractions to control bleeding after delivery, causing uterine subinvolution. This 

process is known as uterine involution. The herbal composition of rujak soup is 

useful for preventing blood clots due to a compound called gingerol in ginger. The 

type of research used in this study was a quasi-experiment with a two-group post-

test design. The population in this study was postpartum mothers from the first day 

to the tenth day of postpartum at PMB F Bengkulu City as many as 117 people with 

a sample of 30 respondents. The statistical test used was the Independent T-test. The 

results of this study indicate that the average acceleration of uterine involution on 

the seventh day is known that in the herbal soup rujak group is 4.73 and the uterine 

involution acceleration in the palm juice group is 5.40 with a mean difference 

between the herbal kuah rujak group and the date palm juice group. 0.67. There was 

an effect between the group of herbal ingredients of rujak sauce and the palm juice 

group on the TFU on day 7 with a p value = 0.038 and a mean difference of 0.67. 

This proves that the herbal rujak soup accelerates uterine involution more. It is 

hoped that the PMB of the Telaga Dewa Working Area will continue to promote 

complementary medicine with herbal ingredients to reduce the use of chemical 

drugs and help deal with problems during the postpartum period.

INTRODUCTION 

 According to the World Health Organization 

(WHO) in 2021, the highest mothers’ mortality rate 

cases occurred in the African region at 525 deaths 

per 100,000 live births and the lowest was in the 

European region at 13 deaths per 100,000 live 

births (WHO, 2021). The most common causes of 

mothers’ mortality rate in Indonesia in 2019 were 

caused by several cases, such as bleeding (30.32%), 

hypertension in pregnancy (25.25%), infection 

(4.90%), circulatory system disorders such as 

anemia, hypertension (4 74%), metabolic disorders 

such as constipation, excessive nausea and 

vomiting (3.72%) and others (31.06). Postpartum 

postpartum (PPS) is caused by 70% uterine atony, 

20% trauma, and 10% abnormal placenta (POGI, 

2016). 

 Uterine atony refers to the corpus uteri 

myometrial cells inadequate contraction in response 

to endogenous oxytocin that is released in the 

course of delivery. It leads to postpartum 

hemorrhage as delivery of the placenta leaves 

disrupted spiral arteries which are uniquely void of 

musculature and dependent on contractions to 

mechanically squeeze them into a hemostatic state. 

Uterine atony is a principal cause of postpartum 

hemorrhage, an obstetric emergency. Globally, this 

is one of the top 5 causes of maternal mortality. 

(Gill P, et al 2023). The process of involution is the 

return of the uterus to its pre-pregnancy state after 

childbirth. The normal involution process is 

characterized by the height of the uterine fundus 

being half the center of the symphysis in the first 

week. The process of uterine involution includes 

the effects of oxytocin, autolysis, and tissue 

atrophy. (Deussen AR, et al 2020). 

 Prevention of involution starts from the third 

stage of labor, namely after the baby is born, 

palpate the fundus to ensure a single fetus, inject 

oxytocin and make sure the placenta is complete, 

and continue with the fourth stage. Involution can 

be medical (injections, massage, mobilization and 

drugs) and non-medical (traditional) with herbal 

drinks (jamu) and date palm juice. Dates juice 

contains a hormone similar to the hormone 

oxytocin, which is a hormone produced by 

neurohypophysis (Zubova TV, et al 2021). Herbal 

drinks (jamu) were popularized by the people of 

Ternate as rojak sauce. The herbal soup rujak 

comes from processed lemongrass, ginger, 

galangal, turmeric, jaewa acid, palm sugar, 

coriander and pepper plants (Nurkila and Rosida 

2013). Composition The herb rujak rujak is useful 

for preventing blood clots due to the presence of a 

compound called gingerol in ginger.  

 Gingerol is a compound that can prevent 

blood clots and turn into anticoagulants. Selenium 

in palm sugar can relieve cramps and pain during 

menstruation. In addition, brown sugar prevents the 

occurrence of blood clots, so as to prevent infection 

and sub-involution on days 1-10 of the puerperium, 

in line with the research of Nurkila and Rosida 

(2015) there is an effect of Herbal Rujak soup on 

the process of postpartum stinging which is felt by 

other postpartum mothers. discharge of puerperal 

blood or lochia such as blood more smoothly out, 

odorless puerperal blood, no abdominal pain and 

other benefits to the body. Dates are a fruit that is 

rich in benefits. Dates with various contents that are 

useful in the body's metabolic processes are very 

beneficial for health if consumed properly. Saryono 

et al. (2016) stated that dates can prevent anemia, 

help the involution process and improve milk 

quality. 

 The herb used during the postpartum period is 

known for generations as rujak spice which consists 

of 8 medicinal plants namely ginger, turmeric, betel 

leaf, bay leaf, tamarind, lemongrass, pepper and 

brown sugar/palm (Muti'ah, 2014). This herb is 

believed by the community to reduce post-partum 

pain and almost all women use rujak spices during 

the puerperium (Ani and Kusumawati, 2018). 

 The most important benefits felt by mothers 

regarding the effect of the Herbal Rujak soup on the 

postpartum period were the discharge of 

postpartum blood or lochia more smoothly, 

odorless puerperal blood, no abdominal pain and 

other benefits to the body. Then the research of 

Nurkila and Rosida (2013) explained that the 

benefits of rujak herbs that were felt by postpartum 

mothers, one of which was that there was no 

abdominal pain. During the puerperium there will 

be physiological changes, one of which will 

involute the uterus so that postpartum mothers often 

complain of abdominal pain (Laili, 2019). Ginger 

and turmeric are plants used in ruja seasoning. 

Postpartum mothers start consuming rujak herbs for 

7-14 days during the puerperium and are consumed 

2 times a day. The herbal content of the rujak 

seasoning used in the rujak spice concoction 

contains active compounds that can produce an 

analgesic effect. For example, the plants used in the 

rujak seasoning, namely ginger, lemongrass, 

turmeric, betel leaf, bay leaf, pepper and tamarind, 

contain anthocyanins that can act as analgesics.

 In a study conducted by Anita (2020), 

postpartum mothers who consumed traditional 

rujak spices experienced a 31.70% decrease in 

uterine diameter compared to postpartum mothers 

who did not consume these herbal medicines.  

Based on the results of an initial survey conducted 

at the PMB in the Telaga Dewa Community Health 

Center, Bengkulu City, data on the number of 

postpartum mothers from January-December 2020 

was obtained at PMB F as many as 117 people, 

PMB O 96 people and at PMB M 19 people. 

Preliminary study conducted at PMB F, postpartum 

mothers only mobilize and exercise postpartum to 

accelerate the involution process, there is no 

complementary therapy applied to all postpartum 

women regarding the benefits of giving rujak herbs 

to accelerate the process of involution in 

postpartum mothers with a high average involution. 

occurred for 10 days. 

 Based on the data above, the authors 

conducted a case study because there were still 

many mothers who did not know that the involution 

process could be accelerated by using rujak herbs, 

so the authors were interested in conducting a case 

study entitled "The Effectiveness of Rujak Rujak 

Herbals on the Acceleration of Uterine Involution 

in Postpartum Mothers in the Independent Practice 

of Midwives in Bengkulu City in 2022”. 

 

METHODS 

 The type of the research was quantitative 

research. The design used in this study was a quasi-

experimental design, namely by looking at the 

acceleration of uterine involution in postpartum 

mothers from the first to the 10th day. using the 

observation sheet. The design used in this study 

was a two-group post test design. The population in 

this study were all postpartum mothers from the 

first day to the tenth day of postpartum at PMB F 

Bengkulu City as many as 117 people. The sample 

in this study were postpartum mothers in the 

Bengkulu City Midwife Independent Practice. The 

sample was divided into two groups, namely 15 

samples in the intervention group and 15 samples in 

the control group, with a total sample of 30 samples 

 This study used bivariate analysis which is 

processed using computerization. Bivariate analysis 

was used to see the effect of the independent 

variable on the independent variable. The analysis 

in this study to see the difference in the acceleration 

of uterine involution between postpartum mothers 

who were given Herbal Rujak soup and the group 

of postpartum mothers who were given Sari Kurma 

was performed with the Independent T Test if the 

data distribution was normal or the Man Whitney 

Test if the distribution was not normal.

DISCUSSION 

 The results showed that the age category of 

respondents 20-35 years was 14 people (93.3%), 

and in the date palm juice group, respondents aged 

20-35 years were 12 people (80%). The results of 

this study illustrate that the average post partum 

mother has a productive age which minimizes the 

risk of complications in post partum mothers 

including antonia uteri. 

 The results of this study also showed that in 

the rujak soup herbal group there were 11 people 

(73.3%) who had primipara/multipara parity and in 

the palm juice group there were 10 people (66.7%) 

had primipara/multipara parity. The results of this 

study illustrate that post partum mothers have ideal 

parity in having children which have a positive 

impact on the pregnancy process. However, there 

are still mothers who have grandemultipara parity 

which can have an impact on the reproductive 

system, one of which can inhibit the return of 

uterine involution. 

 Based on the table above, it is also known that 

in the herbal rujak soup group there were 5 people 

(33.5%) who did not do IMD and in the palm juice 

group there were 7 people (46.7%) who did not do 

IMD. The results of this study indicate that the 

average mother does IMD although there are still 

many mothers who do not do IMD, this can happen 

because of some problems that IMD cannot do. 

There are still many mothers who do not do IMD, 

this can be a problem in the process of uterine 

involution which by doing IMD can respond to 

hormones that can accelerate the process of uterine 

involution. 

 Based on the table above, it is also known that 

in the herbal rujak soup group there were 5 people 

(33.5%) who did not do IMD and in the palm juice 

group there were 7 people (46.7%) who did not do 

IMD. The results of this study indicate that the 

average mother does IMD although there are still 

many mothers who do not do IMD, this can happen 

because of some problems that IMD cannot do. 

There are still many mothers who do not do IMD, 

this can be a problem in the process of uterine 

involution which by doing IMD can respond to 

hormones that can accelerate the process of uterine 

involution. 

 According to Kautsar (2011), many factors 

can influence the involution process including 

breastfeeding, early mobilization, nutritional status, 

pariety and age. One of the factors that influence 

uterine involution is age and parity. Mothers who 

are older are much affected by the aging process. 

undergo changes in metabolism, this will inhibit 

uterine involution, mothers with high parity, the 

process of involution becomes slower, because the 

more often they are pregnant, the uterus will often 

experience stretch. 

 The results showed that the average value of 

acceleration of uterine involution on the third day 

in the herbal rujak soup group was 9.67 and the 

acceleration of uterine involution in the palm juice 

group was 10.40 with a mean difference between 

the herbal soup and dates group of 0.73. The 

average acceleration of uterine involution on the 

seventh day is known to be 4.73 in the herbal soup 

rujak group and the uterine involution acceleration 

in the palm juice group is 5.40 with a mean 

difference between the rujak herbal group and the 

date palm juice group of 0.67/ 

 The results of this study illustrate that 

postpartum mothers who are given the intervention 

of rujak herbal sauce will experience accelerated 

uterine involution faster than post partum mothers 

who are given the intervention of date palm juice. 

 The puerperium lasts for approximately 6 

weeks. This period the mother requires certain 

actions that can speed up the involution process. 

Uterine involution involves reorganization and 

exfoliation of the decidua/endometrium and 

exfoliation of the placental attachment site 

characterized by a decrease in size and weight as 

well as a change in the location of the uterus as 

indicated by the color and number of lochia. If 

there is failure of uterine involution to return to a 

non-pregnant state, it will cause sub-involution. 

The most common causes of uterine sub involution 

are retained placental fragments, infection, and late 

postpartum haemorrhage (Maritalia, 2014). 

 The results of this study found that there was 

an effect between the group of herbal ingredients of 

rujak sauce and the palm juice group on TFU on 

day 3 with p value = 0.009 and the mean difference 

was 9.67. While the TFU on day 7 with a p value = 

0.038 and a mean difference of 0.67. This proves 

that the herbal soup rujak accelerates uterine 

involution more than giving date palm juice. The 

results of this study are in accordance with the 

research research of Nurkila, S. Rosida Hi.S, (2015) 

with the title The Experience of Consuming Rujak 

Rujak Herbs in Postpartum Mothers in the Ternate 

City Region. The results of the study found that the 

most important benefits felt by the mother was the 

effect of Herbal Rujak soup on the postpartum 

period, namely postpartum blood loss or lochia 

such as blood flowing more smoothly, odorless 



30        Journal of Ners and Midwifery, Volume 10, Issue 1, April 2023, page 25-31 

postpartum blood, no abdominal pain and other 

benefits to the body. 

 The results of this study are in line with 

research conducted by Anita (2020), postpartum 

mothers who consumed traditional rujak spices 

experienced a decrease in uterine diameter by 

31.70% compared to postpartum mothers who did 

not consume these herbal medicines. 

 Based on the multivariate analysis, it was 

shown that together, the intervention of rujak herbal 

sauce, date palm juice and age affected uterine 

involution (0.38%). The results of this study 

explain that together from the 2 variables analyzed 

for the intervention of herbal rujak sauce and palm 

juice which are supported with age, it will 

accelerate uterine involution. The presence of this 

slight influence can occur due to other factors 

where in addition to these four factors there are still 

many factors that can affect uterine involution in 

postpartum women, such as maternal parity where 

in this study many mothers who were respondents 

had primiparous and multiparous parity. 

 The process of uterine involution is strongly 

influenced by the age of the mother at delivery. The 

age of 20-30 years is an ideal age for a good 

involution process to occur. This is due to because 

of the elasticity factor of the uterine muscles, 

considering that mothers who are over 35 years old 

have reduced muscle elasticity. In addition, the 

action of mobilization causes circulation 

improvement, makes deep breathing and stimulates 

normal gastrointestinal function again. With early 

mobilization, uterine contractions will be good so 

that the uterine fundus is hard, so the risk of 

abnormal bleeding can be avoided, because 

contractions constrict open blood vessels (Elisabeth 

Siwi, 2017). 

 

CONCLUSION 

 Based on the results of the research 

conducted, conclusions were drawn, In the group of 

rujak herbal soups in the age category of 

respondents 20-35 years as many as 14 people 

(93.3%), and in the palm juice group respondents 

aged 20-35 years as many as 12 people (80%). In 

the herbal soup group, there were 11 people 

(73.3%) who had parity of primipara/multipara and 

in the palm juice group there were 10 people 

(66.7%) who had parity of grandemultipara. In the 

herbal soup rujak group there were 5 people 

(33.5%) who did not have IMD and in the palm 

juice group there were 7 people (46.7%) who did 

not do IMD. The average acceleration of uterine 

involution on the seventh day is known to be 4.73 

in the herbal soup rujak group and the uterine 

involution acceleration in the palm juice group is 

5.40 with a mean difference between the rujak 

herbal group and the date palm juice group of 0.67. 

There was an effect between the group of herbal 

ingredients of rujak sauce and the palm juice group 

on the TFU on day 7 with a p value = 0.038 and a 

mean difference of 0.67. This proves that the herbal 

soup rujak accelerates uterine involution more. 

Taken together, it turned out that the intervention of 

rujak herbal sauce, date palm juice and age affected 

uterine involution by (0.38%). 

 

SUGGESTION 

 Give herbal rujak soup to every postpartum 

woman to accelerates uterine involution will be the 

best solution to this case.
