Abstract This study aims to determine the effect of counseling methods on the knowledge and attitudes of young women about brest self-check (Periksa Payudara Sendiri = SADARI) at IMMIM High School of Pangkep Regency. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a case control approach. Respondents in this study were 74 young women. The sample was divided into two, namely 37 people in the experimental group and 37 people in the control group. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that there is an increase in knowledge in the experimental and control groups. The pretest results in both groups showed an increase of 94.6% in the experimental group and 97.3% in the control group, with a sig value. 0.00. While the attitude has also increased 70.3% in the experimental group and 67.6% in the control group with sig. 0.203 and 0.626. There was an increase in attitude, but it was not significant. This is based on the attitude of young women who know about SADARI procedures but still lack the practice because they have no time and are considered complicated.
