ABSTRACT
We carried out a longitudinal, descriptive type study with the objective of showing the knowledge teenagers have on the prevention of sexually transmitted infections in the Teaching Polyclinic Reynold García, of Versalles, applying an anonymous survey to a group of 60 female 12-to-19 years-old teenagers. Data were processed and the results are shown in tables and graphics. It was significant that most of the teenagers had lack of knowledge on the methods for protecting against sexually transmitted infections, being the condom usage the one they referred to the most. They also committed mistakes on the AIDS transmission ways, and at the same time they did not identified promiscuity as a risk fact for acquiring a sexually transmitted infection. We arrived to the conclusion that there was not an adequate knowledge on sexually transmitted infections and their prevention among the teenagers we studied.
