Sexual Education in Adolescents

Sexual education for adolescents encompasses teaching young people about their bodies, relationships, consent, sexual orientation, and reproductive health. It aims to equip them with the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions about their sexual and emotional well-being. Effective sexual education addresses topics such as puberty, safe sex practices, prevention of sexually transmitted infections, and understanding of healthy relationships. Providing comprehensive sexual education helps reduce misconceptions, promotes healthy attitudes towards sexuality, and empowers adolescents to navigate their experiences safely and responsibly.
