Educational efforts are essential to enhance awareness and understanding among pregnant women, including the use of Healt Promotion media. This study aims to determine the effect of Health Promotion on improving pregnant women’s knowledge of pregnancy danger signs at Midwife Elna’s Practice in 2025. This research employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. A total of 30 pregnant women were selected as respondents using a total sampling technique. The research instruments included a questionnaire and Health Promotion media.
