目标.研究了母亲和青少年之间讨论避孕套的时间与青少年在第一次性行为和随后的性行为中使用避孕套之间的关系。性活跃的青少年报告他们是否和何时与母亲讨论避孕套，并回答关于他们自己使用避孕套的问题。初次性行为前母亲与青少年讨论避孕套与首次性行为和最近一次性行为中避孕套使用率较高密切相关，沿着终生定期避孕套使用率较高。在初次性行为前讨论安全套对于促进青少年使用安全套非常重要。
Objectives. The association between the timing of discussions about condoms between mother and adolescent and adolescents' condom use during their first and subsequent sexual encounters was examined.Methods. Sexually active adolescents reported whether and when they discussed condoms with their mother and answered questions about their own condom use.Results. Mother-adolescent discussions about condoms that occurred prior to sexual debut were strongly associated with greater condom use during first intercourse and most recent intercourse, along with greater lifetime regular condom use.Conclusions. Discussions about condoms prior to sexual debut are important in promoting condom use among adolescents.
