Adolescence and menstruation are very closely related because menstruation is one of the important problems for teenage girls. This study aims to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge and attitudes of adolescents with anxiety about facing menarche in class VII students at Makale Tana Toraja Catholic Middle School.

The analysis method was carried out using univariate and bivariate analysis methods using the Chi-square statistical test with a significance level of p-value <0.005. Research shows that there is no relationship between knowledge and anxiety about facing menarche with a p-value꞊0.668>0.05 and there is no relationship between attitudes and anxiety about facing menarche with a p-value꞊0.207>0.05. It can be concluded that there is no relationship between teenagers' knowledge and attitudes and anxiety about facing menarche at Makale Tana Toraja Catholic Middle School.
