Acupuncture at points LI4 and SP6 has been reported to stimulate uterine contractions and reduce pain. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To look into how electroacupuncture (EA) stimulation works at particular places LI4, SP6, and the combination of LI4 &amp;amp; SP6 with frequencies of 30, 50, and 100 Hz on the increase in oxytocin levels postpartum cesarean section. &lt;strong&gt;Method: &lt;/strong&gt;The number of respondents was 144 postpartum cesarean section patients who met the inclusion criteria, divided using the randomized controlled trial (RCT) method into 8 intervention and control groups. Oxytocin levels were analyzed through blood samples using the ELISA method, comparing results before and after the intervention as well as with the control group. &lt;strong&gt;Result:&lt;/strong&gt; The electroacupuncture intervention group's analysis at points LI4 and SP6 showed a substantial (P&amp;lt;0.05) rise in oxytocin levels when compared to the control group. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The findings of this research suggest that electroacupuncture intervention following a cesarean section can induce a rise in the levels of the hormone oxytocin.&lt;/p&gt;

Pharmacological treatment sometimes proves insufficient or contraindicated for postpartum cesarean section patients, highlighting the need for non-pharmacological alternative therapies. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; This study aims to investigate the impact of electroacupuncture (EA) stimulation at specific points SP6 and LI4 using frequencies of 30, 50, and 100 Hz on reducing pain intensity and increasing levels of the hormone β-endorphin in postpartum cesarean section patients. &lt;strong&gt;Method:&lt;/strong&gt; In this research, 144 postpartum cesarean section participants meeting inclusion criteria are divided into 8 groups, comprising intervention and control groups, utilizing a randomized control trial (RCT) technique. Pain intensity is measured using the pain numeric rating scale (PNRS), while levels of β-endorphin are analyzed through blood samples using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method to compare outcomes before and after intervention. &lt;strong&gt;Result: &lt;/strong&gt;The analysis of the intervention group receiving electroacupuncture at specific points LI4 and SP6 has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing pain by increasing levels of the hormone β-endorphin, in comparison to the control group, with significant findings. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The findings of this study show that electroacupuncture intervention in postpartum cesarean section patients can stimulate an increase in β-endorphin hormone levels and effectively reduce postpartum cesarean section pain intensity.&lt;/p&gt;

Approximately 80% of women with PCOS underwent infertility cases. Many studies have shown an association between PCOS and low-grade inflammation. Syzygium polyanthum (&lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt;) contains antioxidants and has antiinflammation activity. &lt;strong&gt;Objectives: &lt;/strong&gt;This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; leaf on glutathione, tumour necrosis factoralpha (TNF-α), sPDL1, and DeGraff follicle expression in PCOS rat models.&lt;strong&gt; Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The female Wistar rats were divided into five groups (n = 5), K0 (normal control), K1 (PCOS group), and three treatment groups which received three different doses of &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; extract. The treatment group consisted of PCOS rat models with &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; extract supplementation of 150 mg/KgBW (P1), 300 mg/KgBW (P2), and 450 mg/KgBW (P3). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; leaf extract significantly decreased TNF-α expression in the treatment group. The highest TNF-α, GSH, and sPDL1 concentration was found in the P3 group (3.83±0.123, 273.12±12.4 ng/ml, and 3.25 ng/ml, respectively). Moreover, the number of follicles was statistically significant in the P1, P2, and P3 groups (2.0, 3.0, and 3.50, respectively). The number of follicles in the P1, P2, and P3 groups was higher than in the positive control; however, it was lower in the negative control (K0) (p&amp;lt;0.05). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum &lt;/em&gt;extract was significantly effective in decreasing TNF-α expression, as well as a significant increase GSH, sPDL1 and DeGraff foliclle count in PCOS rat model.&lt;/p&gt;
