Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome is the proportion of adolescent school girls who demonstrate adequate menstrual hygiene knowledge and hygienic menstrual practices, as assessed through a structured survey tool.Timepoint: As this is a cross-sectional study, the primary outcome is assessed at a single time point only. Each participant will be surveyed once during the one-year data-collection period; therefore, the outcome is estimated only at the time of survey administration (i.e., no baseline or follow-up assessments such as 4 or 8 weeks).
