Abstract

Dysmenorrhoea is a common gynaecological problem among adolescent girls and can interfere with daily activities, including sleep patterns and concentration at school. Inappropriate treatment often causes recurring symptoms, thereby reducing the quality of life of adolescents. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of education about dysmenorrhoea, menstrual hygiene education, and dysmenorrhoea exercises in improving health maintenance in adolescents with ineffective health maintenance. This study used a case study design on Mr. B's family with client An. N, a 12-year-old girl experiencing dysmenorrhoea. The intervention consisted of seven sessions with the main activities being structured education, interactive discussions, menstrual hygiene learning, and demonstrations and practice of dysmenorrhea exercises. The results showed an increase in the client's knowledge about dysmenorrhea and reproductive health, changes in health behaviour in maintaining hygiene during menstruation, and the ability to perform dysmenorrhea exercises independently. The client reported a decrease in menstrual pain intensity from moderate to mild, with active parental involvement as the primary support. These findings confirm that the combination of education and dysmenorrhea exercises is an effective non-pharmacological intervention in improving family health maintenance and adolescent reproductive health.
