The consistency of recalled age at first sexual intercourse.
It is widely believed that people can remember the age at which they first had sexual intercourse.

متن کاملAge at menarche and age at first sexual intercourse: a prospective cohort study.

We describe the longitudinal relationship between AAM and FSI in a large prospective birth cohort.

Consistent with hypotheses, genetic influences explained little if any variation in age at first consensual sexual intercourse for female twins reporting CSA (CSA(+)), with shared environment explai...

There is thus sufficient evidence to recommend administration of the HPV vaccine to all girls by...
