The result showed that 36,7% of subjects had anemia, 69,4% had low knowledge and 65,31% had low activity. Chi-square analysis indicated that knowledge of anemia in adolescent girls significantly (p<0,05) related to anemia incidence, but no significant (p>0,05) relationship between physical activity in adolescent girls with the anemia incidence.
