The program was conducted at Rofiatul Islam Islamic Boarding School in Sentong Village, Krejengan District. Activities included pre-test and post-test questionnaires, distribution of educational leaflets, and counseling sessions focusing on the causes of dysmenorrhea, risk factors, and management techniques. Data analysis was performed by comparing pre-test and post-test results to evaluate the improvement in participants' knowledge. A total of thirty participants took part in this program. The pre-test results showed that 73% of participants had good knowledge, while 27% had moderate knowledge. After the education and counseling sessions, the post-test results indicated an improvement, with 93% of participants demonstrating good knowledge and 7% showing moderate knowledge, signifying a significant increase in understanding. This program successfully enhanced participants' comprehension of dysmenorrhea and its management.
