Mental health is essential for general well-being and significantly impacts global disability rates. Anxiety disorders are prevalent, impacting newborns, adolescents, and young adults, especially females. The chi-square statistic, t-test statistic, and Pearson correlation coefficient were calculated using IBM-SPSS for statistical analysis. A robust relationship was evidenced by a substantial chi-square value and a minimal p-value, indicating a meaningful association between anxiety and a certain group. The Pearson correlation coefficient demonstrates a positive association between stress and outside time, whereas a negative correlation implies the opposite. The research examines the mental health status of young women in Bangladesh, concentrating on the age categories 18-25, 26-35, and 35-45. The research identified a strong link between anxiety, body mass index (BMI), and Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). The results indicate that primary care physicians and educators ought to utilize markers and stethoscopes for the early identification of worry, and impart knowledge to young women via workshops and community talks.
