The demand of senior secondary school youth for health education in the field of natural family planning

Abstract

Results. A satisfactory level of knowledge about natural family planning was found in 7% of the subjects. Students from the study group had the lowest level of knowledge on thermal and mucus methods, the highest on cervical observation. Students acquired the information about natural family planning mainly from the Internet, magazines and their colleagues. In the opinion of 81% of the students, implementation of the theme of natural family planning at school is justified. Seventy percent of the students confirm their willingness to participate in natural family planning classes organized at school. In the opinion of nearly half of the surveyed students, natural family planning classes should be conducted by a doctor, a nurse and a school teacher.
