Abstrak

Menopause is a natural physiological phase experienced by all women as they age, typically occurring between the ages of 45 and 55. This phase is characterized by the permanent cessation of menstruation due to decreased estrogen and progesterone levels, which affect the cardiovascular system and increase the risk of hypertension. The low awareness among menopausal women regarding routine blood pressure checks has led to many cases of hypertension going undetected in its early stages. Therefore, empowerment efforts through education and early detection of hypertension among menopausal women are essential. This community service activity was carried out in the working area of Kota Tengah Public Health Center Gorontalo City, involving 45 menopausal women as participants. The implementation methods included interactive health education, blood pressure measurements, and knowledge evaluation using pre-test and post-test assessments. The results showed a 42% increase in participants’ knowledge, from 35% before the activity to 77% after the education session. In addition, 40% of participants were found to have hypertension, most of whom had never undergone blood pressure screening before. Community-based health education proved effective in enhancing awareness, behavior, and practical skills related to hypertension prevention. In conclusion, this program successfully improved the knowledge, awareness, and skills of menopausal women in preventing hypertension. Early detection through self-monitoring of blood pressure serves as a strategic step to reduce hypertension incidence among high-risk menopausal women.
