Education is needed to prevent problems associated with reproductive health, and counseling is a particular means to educate. Aim To understand the effect of counseling to knowledge level of reproductive health on adolescent students of SMP Kristen Gergaji. Method This research was conducted using quasi-experimental one group pretest-posttest design. Thirty-three samples were taken by cluster sampling from second grade students. Pretest questionnaire was given to subjects followed by counseling, and posttest questionnaire was given one week after. Data were analyzed using paired t test and its alternative Wilcoxon test.
