Sexual Health is a tricky subject when it comes to teenagers. As they are exploring and experiencing sexual activity for the first time, it’s important to empower them and provide Sexual Health Awareness to keep them safe and healthy.  
Sexual Health is much more than checking for STI’s (sexually transmitted infections). Knowing how to protect yourself from STI’s is an important part of Sexual Health awareness. However, when addressing sexual health as a whole, there are many different levels of sexual health that teenagers need to understand.  
Pearl Chemist Group has expert discreet and compassionate sexual health services in Wandsworth that can address the sexual health concerns of teenagers in a professional and caring way.

What is sexual health? 
  
Sexual health enables you to experience and enjoy safe and pleasing sexual experiences without you or your partner suffering emotional or physical harm resulting from pressure to do what they don’t want to do. Good sexual health means you should feel good about your sexual experiences and not regret it. This is true for all sexualities and genders of all ages. Sexual health also involves the practicing safe sex for the prevention of unintended pregnancy and STIs. 
 
Positive sexual health focuses on four key elements: Safety, Respect, Communication, and Knowledge. 
Safety:  This comes from being aware and empowered to stay safe by preventing unwanted sexual or emotional behaviour, unwanted pregnancy, and STI’s.  
Respect:  It’s important that teenagers feel empowered to communicate with partners when they are uncomfortable or don’t like something.  The partner should respect this and listen.  If any of these things are not true, this may not be a healthy relationship. 
Communication:  You should feel comfortable talking about sexuality and feelings with medical and sexual health professionals as well as your partner. By having mature and open conversations about sex without feelings of embarrassment, shame, or fear – teenagers can empower each other to stay safe and speak up if they have any negative experiences or questions. This can help everyone have healthy expectations when it comes to sexuality and intimacy.  
Knowledge: When you understand your mind and body, health, your sexuality, and the laws that create a healthy relationship then you are armed with the knowledge to make healthy and safe decisions when it comes to intimate relationships.
