Sexual Health
Sexuality; It is a basic dimension of the individual that includes gender, sexual identity, gender and roles, sexual orientation, eroticism, love and reproduction. Sexuality is experienced as a result of the interaction of biological, psychological, socioeconomic, political, cultural, traditional, legal, ethical and religious factors.
sexual health; It is not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction, or disability, but a state of physical, emotional, mental, and social well-being related to sexuality. Sexual health requires both a positive and respectful approach to sexuality and sexual relations, as well as enjoyable and safe sexual experiences that are free from coercion, discrimination and violence. Sexual health is affected by changes in sexual behavior, attitudes and social factors, biological risk and genetic predisposition.
sexually healthy adults; They are people who know the value of their own bodies, can take responsibility for their own behavior, can communicate with both genders within the framework of respect, are consistent with their own values, and can express love and sincerity. Therefore, a society composed of sexually healthy adults will be a strong and healthy society.
Sexual health is one of the issues that most concern the society in terms of general health. Sexual problems are one of the health problems that make people unhappy the most. Deterioration of sexual health not only impairs physical health, but also leads to the deterioration of mental health, and then family and social health, in circles in both men and women.
