<p>Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common gynecological issue among women of reproductive age, affecting ovarian function due to hormonal imbalances. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of menstrual cycles and body mass index (BMI) on the risk of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) in adolescent girls in Tarakan City. This research employed a quantitative approach with an observational analytic method and a cross-sectional study design. The sample consisted of 95 adolescent girls from SMA 2 Tarakan and was analyzed using univariate and bivariate analyses. The chi-square test revealed a p-value of 0.000, indicating a significant relationship between BMI, menstrual cycle, and the risk of PCOS in adolescent girls at SMA 2 Tarakan. Hormonal imbalances in adolescent girls can lead to the development of hirsutism due to increased hyperandrogenism. This condition is often accompanied by menstrual cycle irregularities and increased BMI, characterized by weight gain.</p>

<p>Breast milk is the primary source of nutrition for infants. However, not all babies receive exclusive breastfeeding. Among adolescent mothers, barriers and challenges in breastfeeding play a significant role in achieving breastfeeding success. This is closely related to the mother's knowledge in overcoming these challenges. The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge of adolescent mothers about exclusive breastfeeding. The study employed an analytical observational method with a cross-sectional study design. A total of 96 adolescent mothers participated in the study, selected using accidental sampling. The research instrument was a questionnaire, and the data were analyzed using the chi-square test. The results showed that the majority of mothers provided exclusive breastfeeding to their babies (55.2%) and had a high level of knowledge (73.6%). There was a significant relationship between mothers' knowledge and exclusive breastfeeding (p = 0.001 &lt; 0.05), with the odds ratio indicating a 0.235 times lower likelihood of not providing exclusive breastfeeding among mothers with higher knowledge. High knowledge among adolescent mothers about exclusive breastfeeding positively influenced the provision of exclusive breastfeeding to their infants. Health education and breastfeeding counseling are essential for adolescent mothers to support and encourage them to continue breastfeeding their babies until the age of 6 months without cessation.</p>
