The population for the study was female students of reproductive age in tertiary institutions in Osun State. A descriptive research design was adopted for the study. A multi-stage random sampling technique was used for the respondents’ selection. Data were collected from one thousand two hundred (1,200) respondents in only one of the three senatorial districts in Osun State, with three senatorial districts in Osun State, with the use of a self-designed questionnaire. Experts validated this. The test-retest method was used for the reliability of the instrument and found to be reliable at a 0.87 level of significance. Two objectives, which were transformed into two research questions, were raised with one hypothesis. Data were analyzed using frequency count, percentages, and the chi-square test was used to analyze the hypothesis formulated. Findings revealed that the respondents were aware of the Rhesus factor, but were not aware of the availability of screening facilities for the Rhesus factor. Finally, there was no significant relationship between the awareness level of the Rhesus factor and the awareness level of the availability of screening facilities among adolescent students of reproductive age in tertiary institutions. It is recommended that the government and non-governmental organizations should intensify awareness programmes and sensitize the students through educational materials, workshops, campaigns, seminars, and mass media about the need for reproductive health-related issues.
