Book Description | In nigeria there is a high incidence rate of teenage and un wanted pregnancies by adolescents. This is largely due to the low level of knowledge and use of contraceptives. This research thus report investigated the knowledge, perception and attitude of female secondary school adolescents in anambra state regarding contraceptives. The findings reveal that female secondary students in the state have low knowledge and negative attitude about contraceptives. Apparently, there is the need for the government to step up education and creation of awareness for contraceptives use particularly for the adolescents in nigeria. |
