Body mass index (BMI), menarche age, physical activity, and mental health status are significant ( p  &lt; 0.05) predictors of menstrual problem both in rural and urban population. Overall, only 3.30% subjects were aware about PCOS. Dysmenorrhea is the most common menstrual problem, both in rural and urban population.
