摘要：

Menstruation in adolescent girls is often associated with menstruation related problems and poor practices. The study was planned to investigate the menstrual related problems and menstrual practices among school going adolescent girls. The study was a community based cross sectional study in a girls' school in Nagpur. Majority of menstrual practices were significantly better in urban girls as compared to rural girls (P < 0.05). Majority of the girls (71.83%) had at least one problem related to menstrual cycles. There was a significant difference in proportion of menstrual problems in rural and urban girls (P < 0.01). Menstrual problems are a common source of morbidity in this population.
