Abstract
Reproductive health and reproductive health technologies are one of the challenging health studies in the developing world. The study focuses on the knowledge and attitude of adolescent students towards reproductive health technologies. It is the need and responsibility of all individuals especially adolescents (the future procreators) to know about Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) and the sexual health related to it. The objectives are to evaluate the level of knowledge among late adolescents (18-21 years) regarding sexual and reproductive health. To understand the attitudes of late adolescents towards sexual health and reproductive health technologies. To identify gaps in knowledge and misconceptions about sexual and reproductive health among late adolescents. To determine the awareness and perceptions of late adolescents regarding various reproductive health technologies. The study was a mixed method, 46 respondents of age groups between 18-21 years (late adolescents) were selected, using simple random sampling. A self-administered questionnaire was circulated through Google Forms. Data was collected and analysed using SPSS Statistics Data Editor version 22. The level of knowledge the late adolescents have towards sexual health and reproductive technologies is very low and the study should explore all, to know the merits and demerits of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) and the alternative methods for childbirth. The dissemination of information and availability of educational resources on sexual and reproductive health may be resulting in comparable levels of knowledge among individuals of various age cohorts.
