Sexuality
When physiological changes are triggered within an individual’s reproductive system, an adolescent is likely to experience sexual urges, become more sensitive to sexual stimuli, and feel sexual arousal.
Adolescence
These sensations are part of the sexual response cycle, which includes four phases:
excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution.
is one’s assignment upon birth and is dependent on the physical features the person has.
Biological sex
is an identity that is learned and embraced by the individual. It goes beyond biological domains and is both a personal and social construct.
Gender
This would mean taking care of one’s body and avoiding activities that undermine one’s worth and respect.
Respect for ones body
This would refer to being objective, rational, and calm, instead of being swept by one’s emotions.
Maturity in thoughts and deeds
An adolescent should always be grounded by his personal principles and self-worth.
Being guided by ones personal beliefs and core values
Instead of focusing on the present, always weigh your actions now with possible consequences in the future. Sexual pleasure might be overwhelming at the moment but always focus on what it will entail in the future.
Being future oriented
It is a virus that can be transmitted by anal, oral, or vaginal sex with an infected person, as well as through breast milk, during childbirth, and by coming into contact with the blood of having this virus

means having the desired number of children and when you want to have them by using safe and effective modern methods. Proper birth spacing is having children 3 to 5 years apart, which is best for the health of the mother, her child, and the family.
Family planning
It is the will and ability to respond to the needs and aspirations of the family. It promotes the freedom of responsible parents to decide on the timing and size of their families in pursuit of a better life
Responsible parenthood
The 1987 Constitution protects the life of the unborn from the moment of conception. Family Planning aims to prevent abortions thereby saving the lives of both women and children.
Respect for life
This is the proper spacing of 3 to 5 years from recent pregnancy enables women to recover from pregnancy and to improve their well-being, the health of the child, and the relationship between husband and wife, and between parents and children.
Birth spacing
Couples and individuals are fully informed on the different modern FP methods. Couples and individuals decide and may choose the methods that they will use based on informed choice and exercise responsible parenthood in accordance with their religious and ethical values and cultural background, subject to conformity with universally recognized international human rights.
Informed Choice
known as the RH Law, is a groundbreaking law that guarantees universal and free access to nearly all modern contraceptives for all citizens, including impoverished communities, at government health centers. The law also mandates reproductive health education in government schools and recognizes a woman’s right to post-abortion care as part of the right to reproductive healthcare.
The responsible parenthood and Reproductive health act of 2012
is a law in the Philippines, which guarantees universal access to methods on contraception, fertility control, sexual education, and maternal care.

you track your menstrual history to predict when you’ll ovulate. This helps you determine when you’re most likely to conceive.
Rhythm (calendar) method
— a fertility awareness-based method — is a type of natural family planning. Your _________ is your temperature when you’re fully at rest. Ovulation may cause a slight increase in basal body temperature.
Basal Body Temperature Monitoring
also called the Billings Ovulation Method, the cervical mucus method, is based on careful observation of mucus patterns during your menstrual cycle.
Before ovulation, cervical secretions change — creating an environment that helps sperm travel through the cervix, uterus, and fallopian tubes to the egg. By recognizing changes in your cervical mucus, you can try to pinpoint when you’re likely to ovulate — and when you’re most likely to conceive.
cervical mucus (ovulation method)
short-term birth control method in which a woman relies on exclusive breastfeeding after birth to prevent pregnancy.
When a baby suckles frequently at the breast, hormones are released that interrupt a women’s normal ovulation cycle by stopping the ovaries from releasing an egg.
lactation Amenorrhea Methid (LAM)
This is one of the oldest methods of contraception. The withdrawal method of contraception
Coitus Interruptus (withdrawal or pulling out) Method
Birth control history
Ancient Egyptian writings dating back to 1850 BC refer to techniques using a device placed in a woman’s vagina made of crocodile dung and fermented dough, which most likely created a hostile environment for sperm. Other items placed in the vagina included plugs of gum, honey, and acacia.
The birth control patch is a small, sticky square that you wear on your arm, back, lower belly, or other places on your body. Also called a transdermal patch, it sends hormones similar to those in birth control pills or the vaginal ring into your system through your skin. You might also hear it called a transdermal contraceptive. The patch keeps you from getting pregnant by sending the hormones estrogen and progestin through your skin and into your bloodstream. The hormones keep your ovaries from releasing an egg, thicken the cervical mucus to stop swimming sperm, and make it harder for any fertilized egg to implant inside your womb.
Transdermal contraceptive patch
refers to a body modification that is placed underneath the skin, therefore allowing the body to heal over the implant and creating a raised design. Such implants fall under the broad category of body modification. Many subdermal implants are made out of silicone, either carved or mold injected.
Subdermal implants
It is a contraceptive injection given once every three months. It typically suppresses ovulation, keeping the ovaries from releasing an egg. Hormonal injections also thicken cervical mucus to keep the sperm from reaching the egg. If you have the injection during the first 5 days of your menstrual cycle, you’ll be immediately protected against becoming pregnant. If you have the injection on any other day of your cycle, you’ll need to use additional contraception, such as condoms, for 7 days.
Hormonal Injections
is a small T-shaped plastic and copper device that’s put into your womb (uterus) by a doctor or nurse. It releases copper to stop you from getting pregnant and protects against pregnancy for between 5 and 10 years. It’s sometimes called a “coil” or “copper coil”.
Intauterine Device
cap is a barrier method of contraception. It fits inside your vagina and prevents sperm from passing through the cervix (the entrance of your womb). You need to use it with a gel that kills sperm (spermicide).
Diaphragm
a reusable, deep silicone cup that is inserted into the vagina and fits tightly over the cervix. The cervical cap is held in place by suction and has a strap to help with removal. The cervical cap is effective at preventing pregnancy only when used with spermicide.
Cervical Cap
can protect you against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and they can be used to prevent pregnancy. A male condom is placed over a man’s erect penis before sex. Condoms are also called “rubbers,” “sheaths,” or “skins.”
Male Condoms
are a barrier method of contraception worn inside the vagina. They prevent pregnancy by stopping sperm meeting an egg. A female condom can be put into the vagina before sex, but make sure the penis does not come into contact with the vagina before the condom has been put in. Semen can still come out of the penis even before a man has had an orgasm (fully ejaculated).
Female Condoms
When you ejaculate (cum) the fluid or semen from your penis contains sperm. Sperm are made in your testicles (balls) and travel up your vas deferens (tubes) to mix with your semen. These are the tubes that are cut and tied when you have a vasectomy.
Vasectomy
It is a surgical procedure for female sterilization involving severing and tying the fallopian tubes. A tubal ligation disrupts the movement of the egg to the uterus for fertilization and blocks sperm from traveling up the fallopian tubes to the egg. A tubal ligation does not affect a woman’s menstrual cycle
