DISTRIBUTING CONTRACEPTIVES TO PUBLIC SCHOOLS FOR

SECONDSARY STUDENTS

The most prevalent issue in our nation is teenage pregnancy. The risk of poorer
health and well-being for both the mother and the infant increases with pregnancy and
childbirth during the teenage years, which may be related to the socioeconomic
conditions that precede early pregnancy and childbirth. The result is a continuance of
the growing disparity in health and social inequities in society. Teenage antenatal clinics
and access to programs that assist early parenting are examples of evidence-based
public health treatments that should be used to identify susceptible youths and help
those who are pregnant. The study, "Contributing Contraceptives in Public Schools for
Secondary Students," aims to widen youth perspectives. In light of their choice and
action's consequences. What would happen to their future if they became parents so
early.

The study highlights the significance of taking young people's opinions into
account when planning both sex education and the provision of contraceptive services.
It is clear that the cost of condoms is a barrier to their use by the poor. Giving out
contraceptives therefore serves to protect youth against the possibility of unplanned
pregnancy rather than to encourage them to do that. In many cultures, the usage of
these technologies is negatively impacted by prevailing moral standards and religious
prohibitions in addition to social stigmas and individual reluctance.

The prevalence of teen pregnancy and the transmission of STDs will decline if
condoms are distributed to students in public education programs. It makes sense that
condom distribution may have a big influence if one accepts the premise that they are a
reliable method of prevention. One of the best methods for preventing HIV, STDs, and
pregnancy is using condoms. They are without a doubt the most cost-effective method
of defending against these risks for their price.

It is well known that schools serve as educational institutions. Education can be

simply defined as information or knowledge. When schools are let to handle the
obligation of providing condoms, they are disregarding their role. It ought to offer
information about condoms' significance, availability, and potential hazards. This
suggests that another party, namely the stakeholders, may distribute condoms. This
division of labor fosters accountability, specialization, prevents embarrassing situations,
and guarantees that the school won't be accused of promoting sexuality over education.

Contraception and condoms should be widely distributed and available among

teenagers in order to avoid early teenage pregnancy among young women, protect
against various sexual diseases or STDs, and maintain a way of active sexual life
without the burden of pregnancy. Because teenage pregnancy is a concerning conflict
in society, prevention becomes critical at this point. Puberty stimulated the hormone
system. This causes bodily changes as well as the emergence of sexual desires.
Teenagers at this age want closeness with whoever they wish, which leads to doing the
"act."

Sex education and condom distribution programs are an excellent approach to

educate self- and other-responsibility, to explore the meaning of human connections,
and to address "male machismo" and a lack of respect for women in our culture. A sex
education curriculum also helps students grasp their scientific lessons on human
sexuality, reproduction, and disease spread, as well as their social studies lessons on
social connections, cultural norm formation, and the duty of responsible citizens.

The researchers believe that teenagers would be more likely to use condoms if
they were given them publicly in school rather than from friends who have had them in
their pockets for months. The researchers feel that it is critical to encourage sexual
abstinence and moral integrity among youngsters. They must, however, teach about
sexual responsibility as well as sexual abstinence. In today's world, sexual responsibility
typically means using a condom as a form of birth control to avoid pregnancy and the
transmission of sexually transmitted diseases like AIDS.
