One of the health problems commonly faced by adolescents in Indonesia is micronutrient deficiency, particularly iron deficiency anemia, as well as other forms of malnutrition such as undernutrition and overnutrition. The impact of anemia on adolescent health is broad and can affect their quality of life as well as physical and mental development. Anemia may cause fatigue, decreased immunity, and impaired concentration, which in turn can negatively affect academic performance. Therefore, it is important to provide education and prevention efforts regarding anemia, particularly through increasing iron intake, which can be obtained from iron supplementation tablets. Iron supplementation tablets are supplements designed to increase iron levels in the body. The aim of this community service activity was to improve female students’ knowledge of iron supplementation tablets, enhance their understanding of anemia, and provide education on the role of iron supplementation tablets in preventing anemia through educational video media. The method used in this community service activity was educational counseling delivered both directly and through educational video media. To measure the improvement in students’ knowledge, pre-test and post-test assessments were administered. The results showed a p-value of 0.001, indicating a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores.
