Most research indicates that there is an early beginning of sexual relations among young people, a fact that makes them susceptible to risky practices as it is demonstrated by the growing percentage of unwanted pregnancies and the rate of IVES among youngsters under 18 years old. Information and education on sexual health are of relevant importance for the prevention of a risky sexual behavior among young people. In previous studies it has been demonstrated that there is a significant lack of knowledge regarding contraceptive methods too. The current work aims at learning about the sexual behaviors of young people as well as about the basic knowledge they should have about contraceptive methods so as to elaborate efficient intervention and prevention programs. The participants were between 17 and 23 years old. Their first sexual relations were at 16.5 years old, as an average, a figure that is coincident with that of other studies. 85% of the college students being surveyed had had complete sexual relations. Among them, a significant percentage had a risky sexual behavior. Regarding the knowledge they have of contraceptive methods, there is no significant difference between genders. There is lack of knowledge of essential aspects of this area.

The survey was conducted among college and university students aged 17–23 years. The particularities of influence of alcohol on the guideline beliefs of young people about sexuality and in particular on sexual behavior are revealed. Youth consuming alcohol beverages systematically is distinguished by a more liberal attitude towards sex and premarital sexual contacts, as well as broad guideline beliefs about the acceptability of various sexual activities, and a lower sexual culture. The results of a sociological survey indicate a high sexual activity of students.
