  • Strong associations were found with marital status, parental occupation, and awareness of nearby services, showing the impact of socio-economic factors.
  • Cross-sectional research was conducted among 240 adolescents in Jumla using self-administered questionnaires for detailed responses.
  • Findings indicate that lack of sufficient information limits the utilization of sexual and reproductive health services for adolescents.
