Data was collected by researchers with the help of Medical Officer and Medical Social Worker of Urban Health Training Center by personal interview and clinical examination method. Data was compiled and presented into frequency percentage distribution. Chisquare test was applied to determine the association between common menstrual problems with body mass index and anemia. Results: Out of total 237 adolescent girls, 230 (97.04%) had attained menarche of which, 147 girls (63.91%) had regular and 83(36.08%) had irregular menstrual cycle with mean age at menarche by recall method was 12.8 yrs. The percentage of common menstrual problems such as oligomenorrhea, menorrhagia, metrorrhagia, hypomenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, and premenstrual syndrome were 16.08%, 17.82%, 27.39%, 59.56%, 49.13% and 46.52% respectively, however amenorrhea ( primary ) was seen in 3 (0.01%) girls. Prevalence of undernutrition and anemia was 40.86% and 60.43%. Health seeking behavior for common menstrual problem was seen in only 25.75% girls.
