dc.description.abstractIt is just stating the obvious to aver that young people in all regions are reaching puberty earlier and are habitually engaging in sexual activity at a younger age, and thereafter, marrying later. As a result, they are sexually exposed for a longer time before marriage than has historically been the case, and as such, are at higher risk of unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections. Needless to say, nonmarital sexual activity is increasing among adolescents. However, less than half of those who want to avoid pregnancy are using a modern method of contraception.en_US
