The problem occurs due to a lack of knowledge about three primary threats to adolescent reproductive health, namely, sexuality, HIV / AIDS, and drug abuse, which will affect the attitudes and practices that university students will adopt related to reproductive health. This study aims to analyze the effect of reproductive health education through videos and e-leaflets on improving students’ reproductive health knowledge, attitudes, and practices. The hypothesis for this study was to explore the differences in knowledge, attitudes, and practices before and after the intervention.Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design. Purposive sampling was used to select participants from four universities in the Jatinangor District. 166 female first-year university students were divided into the study group through video (n = 83) and the control group through e-leaflet (n = 83). A structured questionnaire assessed reproductive health knowledge, attitude, and behavior before and after the intervention. SPSS version 27.0 was used to analyze the data.Results: This study showed that university students’ knowledge, attitudes, and practice increased significantly after the intervention (p< 0.001). The comparison results between the intervention group and the control group did not show a significant difference in knowledge improvement (p> 0.001); however, they showed differences in attitude and behavior improvement (p< 0.001).Conclusion: Reproductive health education through video and e-leaflets is equally effective in improving first-year students’ knowledge, attitude, and practice. University support is necessary for reproductive health education among students.Keywords: health education, knowledge, attitude, practice, reproductive health
