contents A santriwati (santri) are female teenagers who are aged 11-15 years and who live in an Islamic boarding school. Poor knowledge about Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) may lead to health problems such as reproductive tract infections, influenced by sanitation and the cleanliness of the water. The aim of this study was to describe the practice of MHM in an Islamic boarding school. The research used a descriptive study design including distribution of frequencies and proportions on basic demographics, MHM knowledge, and access to sanitation facilities. A total of 74 santri were selected by random sampling. The results of this research found that the among respondents, 57% showed a moderate level of knowledge on menstruation management, while 22% showed a low level of knowledge. Further, we found that 75.6% had good access to clean water, while 24.3% had less access. On disposal of sanitary dressings we found that 44% left their sanitary pads in public places; 43% of the respondents changed their sanitary pads between 3 to 6 hours. The level of santris’ knowledge on menstrual hygiene was relative low, although they were aware about best practice in disposing sanitary pads; the lack of adequate disposal devices was the main source for less desirable practices. Santri also need to have information on the desirable frequency of changing pads. Key words: MHM, islamic boarding school
