School, behaviour and health-related difficulties in early adolescents with contraceptive consultation: a population-based study in eastern France
Résumé
Early adolescence (10-16 years) is a crucial period for physical, mental and cognitive development where a wide range of school, behaviour and health-related difficulties may occur. These issues may be aggravated in adolescents with early affective/sexual live and contraceptive consultation. This study assessed the risk of school, behaviour and health-related problems among younger boys and girls having a contraceptive consultation. Such knowledge would inform care providers about their main role in monitoring and caring adolescent problems.
