Introduction: Menarche is a turning point in the lives of adolescent girls. It depicts the transition from childhood to puberty. Girls undergo a lot of physical and emotional changes during this time which can affect their daily life activities. The reproductive health of young women in developing countries requires increased attention. It is vital for young women to obtain appropriate health care so that they can cope with the gynecological problems they may experience during this period and to know the risks so that effective interventions can be made to prevent these problems.

Method: A structured self-administered questionnaire was circulated to young girls within the Pune district of Maharashtra state in India. The collected data were checked for completeness and accuracy and the results were analyzed using appropriate statistical analysis.

Result: A total of 250 young girls participated in the study. It was found that 28.8% of the participants had an irregular menstrual cycle. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and thyroid disorders are two of the health conditions noted in this study. Around 33.6% of the participants in this study reported that they experienced pre-menstrual symptoms. The majority of the participants do not visit a gynecologist for a regular check-up.

Conclusion: It was found that the majority of the participants in this study demonstrated a lack of knowledge regarding their menstrual health.
