Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate how well adolescent girls in Indonesia understand menstrual hygiene management (MHM) and to identify factors causing poor MHM practices and missed school days during their periods.
- - Researchers surveyed 1,159 girls aged 12-19, finding that over half reported poor MHM practices, and 11.1% had missed school due to menstruation.
- - Results indicated that girls in rural areas, with lower knowledge of menstruation, and those who believed menstruation should be kept secret were more likely to experience poor MHM practices and school absenteeism.
