Adolescents’ Communication on Sexual and Reproductive Health Matters with Their Parents and Associated Factors among Secondary and Preparatory School Students in Ambo Town, Oromia, Ethiopia

The study showed that parent-adolescent communication on SRH issues is low. Being female, those from a private school, father's education, perceived importance of sex education, source of information about SRH issues (school and media), and mother's openness to communicate about SRH issues were identified to be factors associated with the communication. Therefore, the concerned body should consider the identified factors to improve the current level of parent-adolescent communication and adolescent reproductive health.
