account the risk of contraception in the face of insufficient knowledge of
contraception and inadequate practice in contraceptive use.

institution have about family planning methods.
Concepts Family Planning, Sexual and Reproductive Health, Adolescent, Students.
Initial Study Approaches It is important to highlight that health education is the fundamental tool of
knowledge, information and family support to achieve the benefits of
responsible sexual practice and to avoid social problems of unplanned
pregnancies or the suffering of diseases due to sexual contact.

ethical guide for the conduct of this study, considered safe because the data
were obtained without carrying out experiments on the subjects. Likewise,
the consent of the parents and a format of approval was obtained for their
children to participate as informants of this study because they were
minors.

and in the family (14.4 %). indicated that the method considered to prevent

pregnancy may occur (71.2%). Similarly, out of shame or shame they do not
request information on contraceptive methods (51.5 per cent), some have not had
their first sexual intercourse (50.7 per cent); they also stated that the first family
planning method used was the condom (67 %).

relations and the use of contraception.
