Abstract

Background: The high incidence of vaginal discharge among adolescents in Indonesia is generally caused by poor genital hygiene practices and low self-awareness regarding reproductive health. Adolescents often perceive vaginal discharge as a normal issue and are reluctant to seek information or medical assistance. This study aimed to determine the effect of health education evaluation using the Make a Match model on adolescent girls’ self-awareness about genital hygiene.
Methods: This research used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test approach involving 30 female students at MTs Al Inayah, Bandung City, selected through total sampling. The intervention consisted of educational videos and a Make-a-Match card game. Data were collected using a self-awareness questionnaire and analyzed with the Wilcoxon test.
Results: The intervention resulted in a significant increase in self-awareness (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that the Make a Match learning model is effective in enhancing adolescents’ self-awareness, as it is interactive, enjoyable, and age-appropriate.
Conclusion: This model facilitates self reflection and strengthens adolescents’ understanding of the importance of maintaining genital hygiene to prevent future reproductive health problems.
