Factores sociales y su asociación con el comportamiento sexual de riesgo para adquirir enfermedades de transmisión sexual

Abstract

proponemos proporcionar a las alumnas información necesaria y permanente sobre las ETS, que les permita desarrollar habilidades para establecer relaciones sexuales seguras y promover entre ellas el uso del condón y de otras barreras profilácticas.The present work identifies the social factors associated with high risk sexual behaviors that may lead to the acquisition of sexually transmitted diseases. The study was conducted with 940 female students. The sociodemographic characteristics identified as factors of risk were the age, the sexual partners, and the the type of partner. These fidings show that fifteen percent of those studied had high risk sexual behaviour. High risk sexual behaviour was associated with a background of EST, given that the 12% of the population in the study made reference of having had such a background in any given moment in their lives
