Abstract : Background: Adolescence is a transitional phase of growth and development between childhood and adulthood. The world health organization (WHO) defines an adolescent as any person between ages 10 & 19. Adolescence in girls has been recognized as a special period in their life cycle that requires specific and special attention. During this stage of life, a youth undergoes rapid changes in body structure, mediated by the sex hormones. Menstruation and its practices are still clouded by taboos and sociocultural restrictions resulting in adolescent girls remaining ignorant of the scientific facts and hygienic health practices. As a result, incorrect and unhealthy behaviour during their menstruation are still observed. Reproductive tract infection, which has become a silent epidemic that devastates women’s life, is closely interrelated with poor menstrual hygiene. Globally, at least 500 million women and girls lack proper access to menstrual hygiene facilities. So, Correct knowledge and proper menstrual hygienic practices can protect the women from this suffering. Unhygienic practices and social taboos followed during menstruation are issues need to be addressed at all levels. Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of video assisted teaching on menstrual health among adolescent girls. Methodology: In this study, pre-experimental research design was used. For total 60 adolescent girls who met the sampling criteria were selected with convenient sampling technique from the selected area of DNH. The data were collected using interview method from knowledge questionnaire and attitude scale. Results: The result revealed that a significant difference in the knowledge post-test score (27.15) is higher than the pre-test score (6.72) of adolescent girls after administering of video assisted teaching as measured by ‘t’ test (37.76) which was highly significant at 0.00001 level of significance. There is a significant association between socio-demographic variables that is Age, Educational status, Mother Educational qualification, Area of resident, Family income, any previous knowledge and if yes, Source of information with knowledge score at 0.05 level of significant. Conclusion: The study proved that video assisted teaching programme is an effective teaching strategy in improving the knowledge of adolescent girls related to menstrual health.
