Abstract

Background: For female students, maintaining good personal cleanliness is essential to preventing numerous illnesses. Maintaining personal cleanliness is beneficial for women's health. Poor personal hygiene increases the risk of infection. Self-awareness is fostered and taught from an early age through good hygiene practices. Materials and methods:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the personal hygiene practices of female students in the 15-17 years age range at located in Kulasekharam, Tamil Nadu, India, is the Sree Ramakrishna Medical College of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences and Hospital. Female students between the ages of 15 - 17 made up the study units. A questionnaire is used for the study, and female students are given it. By outlining the goal of the study, the female students gave their verbal agreement. Hundred students participated in the study in all. Thirty questions make up the questionnaire, which also asked about sociodemographic data and hygienic practices, which include cloth hygiene, skin hygiene, oral hygiene, hair hygiene, hand hygiene, urogenital hygiene, ear hygiene, bowel hygiene, and mental hygiene. Conclusion:Students that were female showed greater awareness of genital hygiene. They therefore require greater education regarding sleep, water consumption, and scalp hygiene.Wearing clean clothes and taking regular head baths are examples of personal hygiene practices that this survey found to be good, but scalp hygiene, water intake, and sleep are extremely poor; as a result, female students require greater education regarding these topics.
