| description | One of the discomforts during pregnancy is nausea and vomiting, known as emesis gravidarum. Ginger cookies, as a Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM), are often consumed by pregnant women to alleviate nausea. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ginger cookies on pregnant women experiencing emesis gravidarum. This research was conducted as a Randomized Control Trial (RCT), following the CONSORT Guidelines. The study involved 59 pregnant women with a gestational age ranging from 6 to 16 weeks who were experiencing nausea and vomiting. The subjects were selected using random sampling. The intervention involved providing ginger cookies for a duration of 3 weeks. The severity of emesis gravidarum was assessed using the Pregnancy Unique Quantification of Emesis and Nausea (PUQE) questionnaire. Data analysis was carried out using an Independent Sample t-test. The results revealed a significant difference in the average severity of hyperemesis between the treatment and control groups (p < 0.001), indicating a significant difference in emesis gravidarum severity between the intervention and control groups. In conclusion, ginger cookies have been shown to reduce the severity of emesis gravidarum. They can be considered as an adjunct in providing behavioral education to pregnant women to prevent emesis gravidarum.
