[Homosexuality and adolescence. A primary health care center holistic view].
In spite of the fact that homosexuality has existed since time immemorial, homosexuality continues to be a taboo topic for many people. When time comes for a youth to reveal his/her sexual identify to his/her family many young homosexuals experience duress during this process which may have physical and psychological consequences for those youths. Therefore, it is important that all primary health care team members be capable to identify this process in order to apply the most appropriate measures.
