The entire project is an initiative of MSD, a global health leader known as Merck & Co., Inc. in the United States and Canada. Laboratories specialize in medications, vaccines, biological therapies and consumer products.
We congratulate MSD for the initiative and it is always important to know, especially for young people, all possible methods of contraception. According to the report 'Youth in Spain' carried out by Injuve in 2008, it was indicated that the average age of the first sexual intercourse in young men was 16.5 years and 17.2 in women, so parents also have to catch up and know what happens in the lives of our children.
