Examining Sexual and Reproductive Health Discussions during Adolescent Check Ups (video abstract)
In an article to be published in the journal Pediatrics, Drs. Renee Sieving, Annie-Laurie McRee, Chris Mehus and colleagues document the prevalence of discussions between primary care providers and adolescents about specific sexual and reproductive health topics during preventive visits. This article comes from one the first U.S. population-based studies to examine adolescents’ receipt of screening, guidance, and counseling about sexual and reproductive health topics in primary care settings.
