The data were collected using an online Google Form questionnaire, with a total of 400 valid responses analyzed. Statistical measures used in this study included percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The hypotheses were tested using one-way ANOVA and multiple regression analysis. The results indicated that the factors significantly affecting the intention to purchase intimate hygiene products at a significance level of 0.05, in order of influence, were innovation and technology acceptance factors, precisely attitude towards using, and marketing mix factors were price, place, and product, respectively.
