This study explores youth perspectives on reproductive health in urban Dhaka. Using a cross-sectional survey (n=384), we assessed knowledge, attitude, and practices regarding sexual and reproductive health (SRH). Results revealed limited access to services and significant knowledge gaps among adolescents. Findings suggest a need for targeted SRH interventions and inclusive education programs.
