Adolescent Sexuality
Adolescent sexuality refers to the sexual development and behaviors that occur during the teenage years, typically between ages 10 and 19. This period is marked by physical, emotional, and social changes, as adolescents explore their identities and relationships. Factors such as peer influence, media, and education play significant roles in shaping their understanding of sexuality.
During adolescence, individuals may experience a range of feelings and attractions, leading to romantic relationships and sexual activity. It is essential for adolescents to receive accurate information about sexual health, consent, and safe practices to make informed decisions and promote healthy relationships.
