In the multipurpose reporting room at vietnam high school, there's a delicate amount of tension in the air - this course is devoted to “adult reproductive health”, a term that is familiar and strange, curious and somewhat embarrassing for 15 to 6-year-olds。
Activity site
On 8 april, the “young ying yang heart” seminar on young health, sponsored by the sichuan provincial family planning association, opened successfully at the vietnamese high school, with two “heavy” experts - - the secretary/deputy director of the human sperm bank of sichuan province, secretary/deputy director of the reproductive men's department/sichuan province, and dr. Lee xiaohong, associate professor/deputy director of the sichuan university's washington ii hospital, entered the classroom with the most recent knowledge。
Two classes, two "opening ways."
At the scene of the event, li's opening statement was straightforward: “today, we are talking about four points — what is the reproductive system, how it develops, what is normal, and sexual safety.” in his view, men were equally responsible for family planning, domestic work and childcare and were willing to take primary responsibility for the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases。

According to lee, many parents care about their children's learning, height and intellectual development, but often neglect the development of the reproductive system. “the girl is fine, the mother will worry, the menstrual issues will be taken care of. But the boys are different, and mom thinks it's hard to get involved and it's easy to delay.” as a result, many boys would search the internet for themselves, but online information was mixed and they had difficulty identifying the truth。
In the lectures, he told the boys that intimate relationships must be based on the will of both parties, that no one could be compelled to do so and that protective measures must be taken. “more educating boys, and also protecting girls.” that is the idea he has repeatedly emphasized。
Professor lee xiaohong's classroom is more like a gentle conversation, and she divides it into two core blocks: reproductive physical and mental health. “adolescents are periods of radical hormonal change, and physical and psychological interlocking.” she used the most common scene in the clinical scenes: many girls come to the clinic because of a lack of menstruation or pain, but many more are accompanied by emotional problems such as anxiety, irritation, and are simply confused. “for example, a bad mood during this period can lead to a menstruation; when menstruation goes off, they worry about `what's wrong with themselves', thus exacerbating anxiety and creating a vicious circle.”

The weight of a class is outside the classroom
At the end of the lecture, the journalist randomly asked a girl: “what is the greatest gain today?” she thought, and said four words: “protect herself.” the simple words are heavy, because for many young people in remote areas, “protect themselves” is not a slogan, but rather a capacity that needs to be taught。
This is the deepest meaning of the lecture. It is understood that the sichuan provincial family planning association has continued its fertility protection initiatives in recent years and that more than 50 higher education institutions have now been enrolled in the national youth and health institute project. In 2025, an innovative campaign was launched on the theme “first class in youth” in youth health, with 26 school-based events benefiting over 150,000 young people throughout the province, and “guarding youth for love”. The reproductive health section has reached more than 550 places in school, covering nearly 350,000 people. But more important than data is the “chemical reaction” of these lectures when they actually land — the curiosity of the boys discussing each other under the stage, the courage of the girls to come up and ask questions。
Lee xiao red said that a lecture could not last long, “just like a psychological consultation, it is difficult to fully help them at a clinic and requires constant attention from the family, school and society”. At the same time, she said, “the most important thing for kopp is to let them learn to protect themselves, and to say no when they say no” is to say no. "youth is beautiful and only once." it is essential to develop the right vision of life, values and health and to truly enjoy the growth and joy brought about by youth.”
The director of the sichuan provincial family planning association stated that the lecture was one of the activities of the sichuan provincial patriotic health month and the health sichuan campaign month. Through such activities, he hopes to disseminate the concepts of science, civilization and progressive health, provide comprehensive, scientific and warm guidance to his fellow students during the critical period of their development, help them to better understand themselves, care for themselves, protect themselves, build strength in the light of the sun, and grow confident, healthy and happy, and lay a solid foundation for the infinite possibilities of the future。
