Teenage sexual behaviour: perceptive and behavioural outcomes associated with receipt of family planning services
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 July 2008
Summary
The sexual behaviour of 71 teenage girls who attended an information and discussion session at a family planning clinic was examined. Sixty-one of these girls later received contraceptive services at the clinic (clinic group) and their behaviour was compared at follow-up with that of the ten girls who did not attend the clinic again (non-clinic group). The mean frequency of sexual intercourse of the clinic group increased after receiving contraceptive services but did not differ significantly from the figure for the non-clinic group. The majority of the girls restricted their sexual activity to one partner.
