Four meetings are conducted with the implementation of a survey in the first of them , an educational activity in the second and in the third a survey was applied for the second time. The results to teens were given in the fourth meeting and it is conductive a discussion between them and the health personnel. There is no predominance of sex, 9.6% of young people who formed the universe did not study nor work. The most popular contraceptive method was condom, followed by oral contraceptive pills and intrauterine devices. 48.3% of teens believe that the optimal age of initiation of sexual intercourse is between 18-20 years and more than half consider abortion as contraception.
