Results: Based on the results of statistical tests using the Mann Whitney U-Test, a p value of 0.000 <0.05 (α) was obtained which indicated that H1 was accepted and H0 was rejected, meaning that there was a difference in the duration of perineal wound healing between respondents who consumed banana flower vegetables and respondents who did not consume banana heart
