ABSTRACT
This present study was aimed to assess the knowledge regarding role of lifestyle modification in polycystic ovarian syndrome among the girls in selected colleges of Jaipur, Rajasthan, with a view to conduct a seminar. A quantitative research methodology with a descriptive research design was used.

A structured knowledge questionnaire was used to assess both demographic details and knowledge-related questions about role of lifestyle modification in PCOS. The result showed that, A statistically significant association was identified between knowledge regarding role of lifestyle modification in polycystic ovarian syndrome and the socio-demographic variables (education qualification, father’s education, father’s occupation, family income, and previous knowledge of PCOS (p < 0.05)) of girls, while no associations was observed with other demographic factors.
