Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common types of infection among adult women. Various risk factors underlie the occurrence of UTIs, for example, the action of catheterization which allows pathogenic infections and an increase in sexual activity, especially in young people, which can also trigger UTIs. To prevent UTIs, various preventive measures can be taken, one of which is maintaining genital hygiene. Genital hygiene plays an important role in protecting reproductive health and preventing genital infections.

Therefore, SCORA CIMSA UNEJ held an activity called HONEY (Habits to Care for Genital Hygiene Properly) to commemorate Sexual and Reproductive Health Awareness Day (SRHAD) 2023. HONEY consists of a series of events, there are on-air radio broadcasts, LPET, live Instagram, and social media campaigns on the topic of genital hygiene.
