Abstract:

Contraceptive counseling of youth is part of sex education in the br oadest sense. Because of the acceleration of physical development and changing sociological situations, the physician is increasingly confront ed with the problem. He is a witness of the process of development and must place himself helpfully at the disposal of his patients. The techniques of contraception, therefore, form only part of the physician's advice. Counseling the young must be done with special care to avoid damage. It is the physician's duty to provide contraceptive advice and counseling to young and unmarried individuals who seek it.(AUTHORS', MODIFIED)
