相较于那些性成熟较晚的女性，性成熟较早的女性与家庭的联系可能更少，并且更容易发生性传播感染。被照顾或“被照顾”的孩子感觉与外界的联系更少。我们调查了曾经接受过护理的女性（WEIC）与从未接受过护理的女性（WNIC）在性交和性传播感染方面的差异，使用的是来自泌尿生殖医学诊所的女性的自我报告数据。在336名参与研究的妇女中，17名妇女接受过护理，其中13名（76.5%）的性交年龄在16岁以下；其中5人（38.5%）在性交时使用安全套，3人（60%）使用安全套。生殖器感染有淋病、衣原体感染或盆腔炎。相比之下，WNIC分别为112（35.1%）、70（62.5%）和29（40.8%）。低智商人群更有可能有早期的性行为；如果低于16岁，随后的生殖器感染更有可能威胁生育能力。
Women with an early coitarche may be less connected to home than those with a later coitarche and are more at risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Children in care or the 'looked after' system feel less connected.We investigated whether women ever in care (WEIC) differed from women never in care (WNIC) in terms of coitarche and STIs using self-reported data from women attending Genitourinary Medicine clinics.Of the 336 women participating 17 women had experienced care, of whom 13 (76.5%) had coitarche below 16 years of age; of these five (38.5%) had used a condom at coitarche and three (60%) with. genital infections had gonorrhoea, chlamydial infection or pelvic inflammatory disease. This compared with 112 (35.1%), 70 (62.5%) and 29 (40.8%), respectively for WNIC.WEIC are more likely to have early coitarche; if this is below 16 years subsequent genital infections are more likely to be fertility-threatening.
