<![CDATA[Adolescence is a period when adolescent girls begin menstruating (menarche), making it necessary for them to be able to practice menstrual hygiene management (MHM) independently. Proper fulfillment of MHM needs plays a crucial role in maintaining health, comfort, and supporting learning activities at school. This study aims to describe the level of fulfillment of MHM needs among adolescent girls at SMPN 1 Cisaat, Sukabumi Regency, by examining the six domains of the Menstrual Practice Needs Scale-36 (MPNS-36). This study used a quantitative descriptive design involving 172 seventh- and eighth-grade female students selected using proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were collected online using the Indonesian version of the MPNS-36 and analyzed descriptively. The results showed that the overall fulfillment of students' MHM needs remained in the "inadequate" category (mean 2.07). Specific analysis per domain revealed that the greatest barriers were in the Transport and School Environment Needs (mean 1.34), reflecting a lack of toilet privacy and inadequate disposal facilities, followed by Material Reliability Concerns (mean 1.72), which triggered concerns about leakage. Meanwhile, Material and Home Environment support was relatively better (mean 2.45), although privacy regarding the drying of reusable sanitary materials remains a challenge. This study concludes that the low level of MHM needs fulfillment is more influenced by the limitations of school sanitation facilities than by the students' personal habits. Therefore, improvements to sanitation facilities that are responsive to the needs of adolescent girls are required, as well as the strengthening of MHM education through the School Health Program. ABSTRAK Masa remaja merupakan periode ketika remaja putri mulai mengalami menstruasi (menarche), sehingga perlu memiliki kemampuan dalam menerapkan manajemen kebersihan menstruasi (MKM) secara mandiri. Pemenuhan kebutuhan MKM yang baik berperan penting dalam menjaga kesehatan dan kenyamanan serta mendukung aktivitas belajar di sekolah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan tingkat pemenuhan kebutuhan manajemen kebersihan menstruasi pada remaja putri di SMPN 1 Cisaat, Kabupaten Sukabumi. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain deskriptif kuantitatif dengan melibatkan 172 siswi kelas VII dan VIII yang dipilih menggunakan teknik proportionate stratified random sampling. Data dikumpulkan secara daring menggunakan instrumen Menstrual Practice Needs Scale-36 (MPNS-36) versi Bahasa Indonesia dan dianalisis secara deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemenuhan kebutuhan praktik menstruasi siswi secara keseluruhan masih berada pada kategori kurang (mean 2,07). Analisis spesifik per domain mengungkapkan bahwa kendala terbesar terletak pada Transport and School Environment Needs (mean 1,34) yang mencerminkan kurangnya privasi toilet dan sarana pembuangan, diikuti oleh Material Reliability Concerns (mean 1,72) yang memicu kekhawatiran kebocoran. Sementara itu, dukungan Material and Home Environment relatif lebih baik (mean 2,45), namun aspek privasi saat penjemuran bagi pengguna pembalut kain/ulang masih menjadi tantangan. Rendahnya pemenuhan kebutuhan MKM lebih dipengaruhi oleh keterbatasan fasilitas sanitasi sekolah dibandingkan dengan kebiasaan personal siswi. Diperlukan perbaikan sarana sanitasi sekolah yang responsif terhadap kebutuhan remaja putri serta penguatan edukasi MKM melalui program Usaha Kesehatan Sekolah (UKS).]]>
