Why is Sexual Health Important?

Having a good understanding of sexual health and your own sexuality is important for people of all ages and genders.

Bad sexual experiences can be just as damaging to our emotional health as STI's and an unplanned pregnancy can be to our physical health.

Being aware of the consequences involved with sexual relationships and knowing how to reduce the risks enables you to make confident and informed choices about how and who you have sex with, can make good relationships even better and make sex, with that special someone, more enjoyable and relaxed for both of you.
