<div>Background: Dysmenorrhea is a medical condition of pain around the</div> <div>pubic bone and in the lower abdomen during menstruation. The study</div> <div>aimed to assess the effectiveness of a videoassisted teaching program</div> <div>on knowledge regarding effects of home remedies on dysmenorrhea</div> <div>among adolescent girls.</div> <div>Methodology: A pre-experimental one-group pre-test post-test design</div> <div>was used involving 60 adolescent girls of 9th to 12th standard at Stephens</div> <div>International Public School, Miran Sahib, Jammu. The sample was chosen</div> <div> </div> <div>by using purposive sampling technique. Data was collected using a self-</div> <div>structured knowledge questionnaire. A pre-test occurred on day one,</div> <div> </div> <div>followed by a Video Assisted Teaching program on knowledge regarding</div> <div>effects of home remedies on dysmenorrhea. Post-test occurred on day</div> <div>seven.</div> <div>Results: The majority (70%) of participants attained menarche in the</div> <div>age group of 10-16 years with most (35%) from 11th standard. Majority</div> <div>(75%) were vegetarian with most (60%) from Urban area. About (70%)</div> <div>of subjects were doing mild activities with (95%) having 25-35 days of</div> <div>menstrual cycle. Most (72%) of participants belonged to nuclear family</div> <div>with majority (70%) having family / friends as a source of information.</div> <div> </div> <div>The pre-test showed that 85% had inadequate knowledge, while post-</div> <div>test indicated 100% had adequate knowledge.</div> <div> </div> <div>Conclusion: Majority of adolescent girls had inadequate knowledge</div> <div>regarding effects of home remedies on dysmenorrhea before intervention.</div> <div>Video assisted teaching was highly effective in increasing the knowledge</div> <div>of adolescent girls. Hence, it can be concluded that Video Assisted</div> <div>Teaching has effective impact on knowledge regarding effects of home</div> <div>remedies on dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls.
