Prevalence, Preventive Methods, Health-related Outcomes, and Correlates of Sexual Behaviours among Adolescents in Malinyi District Council, Morogoro region, Tanzania

Early onset of sexual behaviors among adolescents is still prevalent. Engaging in sexual activities with individuals closest to them, as well as others who were their blood family, utilising medically unapproved means such as plastic bags and Vaseline jelly during sexual activities, are common among adolescents. The study suggests system-wide school-based interventions to provide adolescents with age-appropriate and comprehensive SRH education and information for the delayed onset of sexual activities.

Abstract

Early onset of sexual behaviors among adolescents is still prevalent. Engaging in sexual activities with individuals closest to them, as well as others who were their blood family, utilising medically unapproved means such as plastic bags and Vaseline jelly during sexual activities, are common among adolescents. The study suggests system-wide school-based interventions to provide adolescents with age-appropriate and comprehensive SRH education and information for the delayed onset of sexual activities.
