Rol del trabajador social en salud sexual reproductiva y prevención del embarazo en adolescentes del Colegio Demetrio Aguilera, periodo. 2022

Abstract

This document covers a circumstantial analysis of sexual and reproductive education and pregnancy in adolescents at the Demetrio Aguilera Malta High School in the Santa Rosa cantón, it describes conceptually that sexual education is a general problem because it causes various potential risks such as school dropout, lack of resources and lack of income. Therefore, the lack of access to information, ignorance and self-exploration of sexuality at an early age is one of the factors that lead to inadequate sexual relations, without taking preventive measures and as a consequence, abortions or in the most extreme cases, the death of the mother. These types of elements have a gradual impact on individuals, generating scenarios of uncertainty that end in abandonment, prejudice, addiction or controlled substances. Likewise, the methodology is quantitative, using an observational approach whose instrument is data collection, i.e. as they are students who are beginning to develop, their psychological characteristics are constantly changing, their way of thinking and behaving in a society that is accelerating with rapid technological change, therefore the present work will integrate issues not only important for the adolescents involved in the research, but also for the promotion and transformation of the family nucleus, as well as integrating planning within the educational institution about the activities to be carried out. The findings obtained show that the Demetrio Aguilera Malta High School has a lack of knowledge about some sexual health issues and this leads to not being able to evidence the types of sexually transmitted diseases that currently exist, school dropout or abandonment, also recognize that it is necessary to implement strategic actions to gradually reduce this problem, build comprehensive development paths in collaboration with the authorities and qualified health professionals, with the aim of inducing a scheme of social welfare, and finally ensure the faculty of the rights and needs of adolescents.
