Summary

In this study, the effect of creative drama-based education on menstruation attitudes and genital hygiene behaviors of adolescent girls aged 10-14 years was investigated. After screening, a total of 64 students were included in the study. Data were collected using Personal Information Form, Genital Hygiene Behavior Scale and Menstruation Attitude Scale.The creative drama method can create an open and safe communication environment by reducing the embarrassment or shyness of young people when dealing with taboo subjects such as menstruation. This approach supported the perception of menstruation as a natural biological process and contributed to the participants developing a more positive attitude towards the subject.
