Knowledge of Reproductive Biology, Conception and Family Planning Methods Among Unmarried Adolescents in Rural Bangladesh: Prevalence and Impact

Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) knowledge among adolescents in Bangladesh remains inadequate, particularly in rural areas. As previous studies on adolescent SRH in Bangladesh have mainly focused on pubertal changes, menstrual hygiene, and awareness of sexually transmitted infections, key domains such as reproductive biology, conception, and family planning are often overlooked, despite their importance for informed reproductive decision-making and the prevention of unintended pregnancy. Thus, adolescents' reproductive knowledge remained incomplete without cross-gender reproductive knowledge, as both boys and girls need to understand their own and the opposite sex's reproductive biology and reproductive processes.
