Abstract: Menstrual health literacy is a critical yet often overlooked component of adolescent health, with far-reaching implications for psychological well-being. This systematic review explores the relationship between menstrual health literacy interventions and their psychological impacts on adolescent girls. Drawing on evidence from peer-reviewed studies published between 2010 and 2024, the review synthesizes findings on how improved knowledge and awareness about menstruation contribute to reduced anxiety, enhanced self-esteem, and greater emotional resilience. Key intervention strategies, including school-based education, community engagement programs, and digital tools, are analyzed for their effectiveness in fostering positive psychological outcomes. The review also highlights barriers to successful implementation, such as cultural taboos, inadequate resources, and gender disparities in education. In essence, this study highlights the potential of menstrual health literacy interventions as a transformative approach to promoting mental health among adolescent girls and offers actionable recommendations for policymakers, educators, and healthcare providers. Future research directions are proposed to further optimize intervention strategies and expand their reach.
