Abstract:
:For an unprepared sexually active teenager the 1990s present a minefield of potential problems in addition to the most obvious problems of unplanned pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease. Promoting the importance of a healthy sexual and reproductive life to young people requires openness, better sex education, realistic discussion of related issues, and provision of contraception, as well as support if things go wrong. The Woodhouse Park Clinic in south Manchester opened in October 1988 with the aim of providing weekly advice sessions to young people up to the age of 18. Advice is given on topics such as substance misuse and smoking as well as on family planning. Attendance has steadily increased over the years; from April to June 1993 the average number of attenders per session was 39, one third of whom were young men. :Opened in October 1988, Woodhouse Park Clinic serves Wythenshawe, a large council housing estate in south Manchester. The district has a total population of 48,072, with an average conception rate over the period 1989-91 of 17.1/1000 among girls aged 11-15. The clinic was opened with the goal of providing weekly advice sessions to young people up to the age of 18 years, along with advice on topics such as substance misuse, smoking, and family planning. The authors describe how in 1986 family planning managers, school nurses, and the local midwife and parentcraft tutor planned the weekly clinic intended to lower the rates of teenage pregnancy in the area. One two-hour clinic session was held from 3:30 P.M. to 5:30 P.M. each Thursday in a multipurpose community health center, staffed by two female school nurses, the female midwife and parentcraft tutor, and one female family planning doctor. Program launching, facilities, consultation, pregnancy tests, clinic management, and attendances are described. Attendance increased steadily over the years, with an average of 39 attendees per session over the period April-June 1993; young men comprised one-third of those who attended.
