Description:
The lack of information on the reproductive and sexual health needs of adolescents in Sri Lanka has been highlighted as an area of national concern. To help identify these needs and to inform reproductive health policy, in 2010 researchers conducted the first survey in 10 years to assess the sexual and reproductive health knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of in-school teenagers. Students from randomly selected government schools in Badulla District were eligible for inclusion in July 2007 and June 2009. The 3% of respondents had engaged in some sort of sexual activity; 23% of these youth said the experience had been nonconsensual. Contraceptive use at first sex was reported by 57% of sexually experienced respondents, and ever use by 63%. Adapted from the source document.
