Follow on Google News | Indian Young Adults at High Risk of Reproductive IllnessesSexologyConsultant.com recently published the findings of a study on reproductive health in Indian young adult population conducted by its parent company, MediAngels.com.
By: Sexology Consultant The research found that adolescents were being exposed to sexual experiences at an early age. In the aforementioned 10-24 years age group, over 6.5 per cent of boys and more than 1.3 per cent of girls revealed that they have had undergone sexual intercourse at least once. The average age of sexual contact was 14.09 years for boys and 13.72 years for girls, while the average age for first incident was 15.25 years for boys and 16.66 years for girls. “In the earlier days, the age at which people got married was 14-15 or at the most 18-19 years. At that time, there was nothing to stimulate their sexual desires; no television or internet. However now, the average marrying age is higher – maybe around 30 years. Therefore, people indulge in sex at an earlier age, to experiment. Also, at the age of 13-15 years release of sexual hormones such as Testosterone develops attraction amongst individuals for the opposite sex,” says Dr. Debraj Shome, a well-known Facial Plastic Surgeon and CEO, MediAngels.com.
