Sexual health refers to the well-being of a person's sexual experiences, relationships, and overall satisfaction. It includes things like having safe, consensual, and enjoyable sexual encounters, understanding and respecting boundaries, and being able to communicate effectively with partners about needs and concerns. It also covers important aspects like preventing sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and having access to reproductive healthcare. In simple terms,
sexual health means having positive and respectful experiences, being in control of one's own body, and taking care of one's sexual well-being.
