Measure
Neither condom nor contraceptive pill use at last sexual intercourse
Unprotected sexual intercourse puts adolescents at risk for both STIs and unintended pregnancies. This measure assesses the prevalence of sexual encounters without the use of either condoms or contraceptive pills among sexually active 15-year-olds. Understanding the prevalence of unprotected sex can help identify gaps in sexual health education and access to contraception, informing targeted interventions to promote safer sex practices among adolescents.
