Abstract
A quantitative research approach and one group pre-test and post-test research design was used to assess the effectiveness of self-instructional module on knowledge regarding polycystic ovarian syndrome among adolescent girls.60 adolescent girls were chosen by non-probability convenient sampling technique. The level of knowledge score was assessed by structured self - administered questionnaire. The study findings revealed that, in the posttest majority of them had adequate knowledge 56 (93%) and only 4 (7%) of them had moderately adequate knowledge and none of them had inadequate knowledge. In the pretest, most of them had inadequate knowledge 53 (88%) and few of them had adequate knowledge 7 (12%). The pretest mean value was 10.43 and standard deviation (SD) of 3.18 and in the post-test mean value was 25.08 with standard deviation (SD) of 2.45. It showed that there was a high statistically significant difference in the level of knowledge among adolescent girls with ‘t’ value of 27.65 at p<0.01 level which in turn indicates that SIM was effective in improving the knowledge of adolescent girls. Therefore, the study concludes that the administration of self-instructional module was an effective method to improving the knowledge regarding PCOS among adolescent girls. So we need to organize awareness program on PCOS among adolescent girls
