“…A recent meta-analysis showed that more girls who experienced early puberty engaged in sexual behavior such as sexual intercourse, noncoital sexual behavior (petting, kissing, caressing, and oral sex), and risky sexual behavior (unwanted pregnancy, contracting sexually transmitted infections/human immunodeficiency virus, noncondom/contraception use, and drug/alcohol use during sex) compared with boys 16) . A similar result was found in a study of Korean adolescents 17) , which used the eighth Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based survey ( Table 1 ). The prevalences of intimate sexual relationships (kissing or petting), sexual intercourse, unprotected intercourse, and pregnancy were 1.54 times (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.28–1.87), 2.35 times (95% CI, 1.65–3.36), 1.92 times (95% CI, 1.06–3.46), and 5.72 times higher (95% CI, 2.31–14.15), respectively, in adolescents who had a very early menarche (before or during grade 4) than in those who had menarche after the fifth grade in elementary school.…”
