Which is a short-term goal related to maintaining reproductive and sexual health?

Practicing refusal methods is a specific action someone can take soon to protect their reproductive and sexual health. Asking friends for advice may not provide reliable guidance, and using contraceptives only occasionally is not a dependable way to prevent pregnancy or sexually transmitted infections. Committing to marriage before having children is a long-term personal decision, not a short-term health action.
