Dysmenorrhea is the most common menstrual disorder among adolescent girls, characterized by menstrual cramps that usually begin within the first 24 hours of menstruation and subside by the second or third day. Dysmenorrhea can adversely affect adolescents by reducing learning capacity, increasing school absenteeism, impairing concentration, interfering with academic performance, and limiting social interactions. Knowledge plays an important role in shaping adolescents' behavior in managing dysmenorrhea. This study aimed to examine the relationship between knowledge and dysmenorrhea management behavior among adolescent girls at SMAN 6 Lhokseumawe. This observational analytic study employed a cross-sectional design with a total sampling technique involving 114 eligible adolescent girls who met the inclusion criteria. Statistical analysis revealed a significant relationship between knowledge and dysmenorrhea management behavior (p = 0.026). Adolescent girls with higher levels of knowledge demonstrated more appropriate behaviors in managing dysmenorrhea. These findings indicate that improving adolescents' knowledge through accurate and reliable health information may promote appropriate self-management practices for dysmenorrhea
