The study sought to establish the utilisation of the available adolescent sexual
and reproductive health services/facilities by Mochudi secondary school
adolescents.
The intent of the study was to determine the level of awareness among
adolescents of the existing Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health
Services/ Facilities in Mochudi and to determine those factors that affect
utilisation of sexual and reproductive health services/facilities.
A self administered questionnaire was used by the researcher to collect data
from the respondents. Data analysis began with studying and coding of the responses from the questionnaires and was analysed using a copy of Excel
software.
The inferences made from this study are that secondary school adolescents in
Mochudi indulge in pre-marital sex and most of them are aware of the presence
of sexual and reproductive health services/facilities. However, the majority of the
adolescents do not use the services/facilities either due to shyness,
inaccessibility of clinics, lack of privacy, unfriendly staff, long waiting time or for
others because they are not sexually active.
The feedback from the adolescents is an indication of the inappropriateness of
service delivery system pertaining to adolescent sexual and reproductive health
in Mochudi. / Health Studies / M.A. (Health Studies)
