Abstract
Adolescence is a transitional period marked by increased hormonal and sexual drives, while emotional maturity and decision-making ability are not yet fully developed, making adolescents vulnerable to risky sexual behavior, including promiscuity. Reproductive health counseling services are believed to play a strategic role in providing education and support to prevent such behavior. This study aimed to analyze the role of reproductive health counseling services in preventing promiscuous behavior among adolescents in Yogyakarta. A cross-sectional quantitative design was used, involving 18 adolescent respondents aged 15–19 years, conducted from January to February 2026. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using the Chi-Square test. Results showed that most respondents (44.4%) actively utilized reproductive health counseling services, and the majority (38.9%) fell into the low-promiscuity category. Bivariate analysis revealed a positive trend — respondents with active counseling utilization had a higher proportion of low promiscuous behavior (62.5%) compared to those with low utilization (0%) — although the relationship was not statistically significant (p = 0.072; p > 0.05), likely due to the small sample size. This study concludes that reproductive health counseling services show a positive indication of a role in preventing promiscuous behavior among adolescents, though further research with a larger sample and stronger design is needed to confirm these findings. Increased accessibility and quality of reproductive health counseling services for adolescents are recommended.
