AB  - Sexual  activity  is  common  among  adolescents.  A  large  ongoing  national  survey  of  US  high  school  students  reported  that  24%  of  adolescents  have  had  sexual  intercourse  by  ninth  grade  and  58.1%  by  12th  grade,  based  on  data  collected  in  2014  to  2015.  Although  rates  of  sexual  activity  have  slowly  decreased  during  1991  to  2015,  the  adolescent  age  group  continues  to  be  at  the  highest  risk  for  common  sexually  transmitted  infections  (STIs)  compared  to  other  age  groups.
