Challenging Myths During Sexual Health Week in Guernsey
September 15, 2025 - 07:18
In an effort to promote awareness and education about sexual health, healthcare workers in Guernsey are tackling common myths that can mislead young individuals. Dr. Nicola Brink emphasizes the importance of critical thinking when it comes to the information available online. With the rise of social media and easy access to a plethora of content, young people are often inundated with both accurate and misleading information regarding sexual health.
Dr. Brink urges youth to differentiate between reliable sources and misinformation, encouraging them to seek guidance from healthcare professionals when in doubt. By fostering an environment where open discussions about sexual health are encouraged, the initiative aims to empower young people to make informed decisions. This approach not only helps in debunking harmful myths but also promotes a healthier understanding of sexual well-being. The ongoing campaign during Sexual Health Week serves as a vital reminder of the importance of education in navigating the complexities of sexual health in today's digital age.
