Abstract:
Encouraging early sexual initiation, misinformation about sexual health and inexperience to deal with feelings in affective relationships make adolescents more vulnerable to the acquisition of Sexually Transmitted Infections. Itis relevant to provide correct information about sexuality in order to ensure safe and satisfactory practices among adolescents. This study aims to analyze the knowledge and behavior of school adolescents about sexual health. It was observed that 08 articles comprised the final sample of the study. There are still gaps related to the sex education methods used by schools, which use a biological vision to provide guidance to adolescents, impacting the low level of knowledge and the adoption of risky practices and behaviors for acquiring Sexually Transmitted Infections and for teenage pregnancy.
