According to the Jember District Health Office in 2023, access to proper sanitation and good hygienic behavior is still low. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between sanitation and individual hygiene with toxoplasmosis seroprevalence in pregnant women at the Kaliwates and Banjarsengon Health Centers. This study used a cross-sectional study type. The subjects of the study were 65 pregnant women at the Kaliwates and Banjarsengon Health Centers who were taken using the accidental sampling technique. The serological examination used the Toxoplasma IgM and IgG. ELISA kit from Calbiotech®. The results of this study showed that 77% of pregnant women were detected positive for toxoplasmosis. The majority of pregnant women have good sanitation and personal hygiene categories of 87.7% and 90.8%, respectively. The Relationship Based on the results of Fisher's exact test, sanitation and personal hygiene are not between Sanitation and Personal related to toxoplasmosis seroprevalence (p>0.05). This study concludes that sanitation Hygiene with Seroprevalence of and personal hygiene of pregnant women at the Kaliwates and Banjarsengon Health Toxoplasmosis in Pregnant Women at Centers are not significantly related to toxoplasmosis seroprevalence.
