title: Improving reproductive sexual health: a primary goal at the beginning of the new millennium.
abstract: At the beginning of the millennium, it is important that experts and official organizations direct their strategic plans towards the improvement of reproductive sexual health. Adolescents represent the major target of these plans in an effort to improve their sexual behavior. Sexually transmitted diseases must be reduced since their prevalence is very high in certain eastern European countries. These plans should be considered together with the development of new fertility control methods which provide at the same time bactericidal and antiviral properties. Education, provided especially through the media, should be considered a tool for the improvement of the present situation.
