Low levels of menstrual hygiene knowledge are commonly found among adolescent girls due to a lack of information and health education. According to Basic Health Research (Riskesdas, 2016), out of 69.4 million adolescents in Indonesia, 63 million exhibit poor personal hygiene practices, particularly in maintaining reproductive health during menstruation. This study aims to analyze the difference in menstrual hygiene knowledge among female students before and after receiving health education using the Menshyc media. This research employed a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design (one-group pretest-posttest without a control group). The study population consisted of 115 fifth- and sixth-grade female students from public elementary schools in the Cisaga region. A total of 82 respondents were selected using proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon test showed a significant difference in knowledge levels before and after the intervention, with a p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05). There is a statistically significant difference in menstrual hygiene knowledge among fifth-and sixth-grade female students before and after receiving health education using the Menshyc media at public elementary schools in the Cisaga region, Ciamis Regency.

Based on the results of data analysis and discussion, it can be concluded that the most common age group among respondents was 12 years old.The level of knowledge among female adolescents regarding menstrual hygiene before receiving health education using the Menshyc media was categorized as less.After receiving health education, the level of knowledge increased to good.Finally, there was a significant difference in the level of knowledge among female adolescents before and after receiving health education using the Menshyc media.

Penelitian lebih lanjut dapat dilakukan untuk mengeksplorasi efektivitas media Menshyc dibandingkan dengan metode pendidikan kesehatan lainnya, seperti penggunaan video animasi atau aplikasi mobile interaktif, untuk melihat metode mana yang paling efektif meningkatkan pengetahuan dan perilaku remaja putri terkait higiene menstruasi. Selain itu, studi kualitatif dapat dilakukan untuk menggali lebih dalam persepsi dan pengalaman remaja putri dalam menerima pendidikan kesehatan menstruasi melalui media Menshyc, termasuk faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi penerimaan dan pemahaman mereka. Terakhir, penelitian perlu dilakukan untuk menguji dampak jangka panjang dari pendidikan kesehatan menggunakan media Menshyc terhadap praktik higiene menstruasi dan kesehatan reproduksi remaja putri, serta untuk mengidentifikasi strategi implementasi yang berkelanjutan dan terintegrasi dalam kurikulum sekolah dan program kesehatan masyarakat, sehingga dapat menjangkau lebih banyak remaja putri dan meningkatkan kesehatan reproduksi mereka secara komprehensif.
