As reported Kompas.com Monday (18/1/2010) Last BKKBN survey conducted in 2008 called 63 percent of adolescents in several major cities in Indonesia has been doing pre-marital sex. Two years earlier, Annie Foundation survey found that 42.3 percent of junior high and high school teens in Cianjur, West Java, had sex.
A survey carried out recently against a number of adolescent girls also prove that the sex between them done without coercion, and based upon consensual.
”They were not aware of the consequences of sex at a young age. As teens, the uterus is still very susceptible to various viruses and germs. So that the human papilloma virus (HPV) which is a precursor of cervical cancer can go in and attack them,”said Dr. Abidin SpOG Boy, the launch of the campaign I Know in Djakarta XXI Club Theatre, Monday (18/1/2010) ago.
Today these young women may not realize the consequences of sexual behavior. Which they fear may be simply that they are not pregnant. But more important note is that the HPV virus is likely to become cancerous the next 10-20 years. That is why cervical cancer can occur at a very young age.
”If they get pregnant, the consequences will be different. They may perform an abortion. But also there are consequences,”added the doctor who practices in RS Mitra Keluarga Kelapa Gading it.
Abortion is likened to a small tree that was removed from the land where grown. Can you imagine what happens when the tree is removed, such as what land in the vicinity. Dr Boy likens the womb it is ground.
“When the woman was married and wanted to get pregnant, will be very difficult, and it is not possible sterility,”said Dr. Boy. Rahim, he said, was strong enough to hold the baby at least 20 years of age.
