Based on the symptoms of Oligomenorrhea the subjects were purposely selected. The aim of the research was to reduce this problem by supplementing them with unripe papaya and hibiscus flowers. A total number of 30 subjects were purposively selected for experimentation. The information regarding the Socio-economic status, food habits, anthropometric measurements and clinical information etc. were collected by using the questionnaire. The research consists of three experimental groups, which are group 1 experimental, group 2 experimental and group 3 control. Each experimental group consists of 10 members of subjects. Experimental group-1 receives hibiscus tea, experimental group-2 receives unrefined papaya tea. The supplementation was continued two months, experimental group-1 showed changes in the clinical symptoms after hibiscus tea supplementation.
