Studi Literatur: Peran Nutrisi Karbohidrat dalam Regulasi Siklus Menstruasi Remaja Putri.
Abstract
Abstract. This literature study reviews the role of carbohydrate intake in relation to the menstrual cycle of adolescent girls. Irregular menstrual cycles are common among adolescent girls, with a prevalence of 11.7% in Indonesia (Riskesdas). Cycle regularity (normal 21–35 days) is regulated by the HPG axis, which is sensitive to various factors, particularly nutritional status and macronutrient intake, where carbohydrates, as the main source of energy, play a fundamental role in hormone metabolism. The results show that hormonal balance is greatly influenced by adequate carbohydrate intake. Adequate intake (50–60% of the Recommended Daily Allowance) supports a normal cycle, while low intake (35 days). Therefore, maintaining a balanced carbohydrate intake according to daily requirements is important for supporting regular menstrual cycles in adolescent girls. Abstrak. Studi literatur ini meninjau pernanan jumlah asupan karbohidrat dengan interval siklus menstruasi remaja putri. Ketidakteraturan siklus menstruasi sering terjadi pada remaja putri, dengan prevalensi 11,7% di Indonesia (Riskesdas). Keteraturan siklus (normal 21–35 hari) diatur oleh aksis HPG yang sensitif terhadap berbagai faktor, terutama status gizi dan asupan nutrisi makro, di mana karbohidrat sebagai sumber energi utama memiliki peran fundamental dalam metabolisme hormon. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa keseimbangan hormonal sangat dipengaruhi oleh kecukupan karbohidrat. Asupan cukup (50–60% AKG) mendukung siklus normal, sedangkan asupan rendah (35 hari). Oleh karena itu, menjaga keseimbangan asupan karbohidrat sesuai kebutuhan harian penting untuk mendukung keteraturan siklus menstruasi remaja putri.
