Remember: Every body develops at its own pace. You are not too early, too late, too tall, too short, too curvy, or too flat. You are exactly where you need to be.

00:06:35,001 --> 00:06:40,000 Your body belongs to you. No one should touch you in ways that feel wrong.

Infections like chlamydia, herpes, HPV, and HIV are spread through body fluids (blood, semen, vaginal fluid) and skin-to-skin contact. Many STIs have no symptoms in the early stages. The only 100% guaranteed protection from pregnancy and STIs is abstinence, but for sexually active teens, are essential.

For those who become sexually active, contraception prevents pregnancy. Options include condoms (male and female), oral contraceptive pills, intrauterine devices (IUDs), implants, injectables, patches, and rings. Each method has different effectiveness rates, side effects, and requirements. Emergency contraception (morning-after pill) can prevent pregnancy if used within a few days after unprotected sex. It is vital that young people know where to access accurate, confidential advice – from a doctor, school nurse, or family planning clinic.
