Dysmenorrhea is a common condition characterized by menstrual pain among adolescent girls. Physical activity is one factor associated with dysmenorrhea severity. This study aimed to determine the relationship between physical activity and dysmenorrhea in female adolescents at SMAN 5 Denpasar. This study employed a correlational analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of 196 individuals, and 66 adolescent girls were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a physical activity questionnaire. The results showed that 39.4% of respondents had low physical activity, and 60.6% had moderate physical activity. Spearman's rank correlation test revealed a significant relationship between physical activity and dysmenorrhea (p = 0.001), with a correlation coefficient of -0.693, indicating a strong negative correlation. In conclusion, the higher the level of physical activity, the lower the severity of dysmenorrhea experienced by female adolescents. Moderate physical activity performed regularly has a positive effect in reducing menstrual pain. It is recommended for female studentsincrease physical activity routinely, such as walking, aerobics, yoga, or other light exercises as a non-pharmacological effort to overcome dysmenorrhea.
