RESUMOViolência sexual contra a mulher é uma das expressões da violência baseada no gênero, que tem como origem o desequilíbrio de poder existente entre homens e mulheres, com maior ou menor intensidade, em todos os países do mundo. Atualmente é reconhecida como um problema de direitos humanos pela ONU, incluindo a violência emocional, física e sexual. A prevalência de violência sexual é muito difícil de determinar, mas provavelmente afeta pelo menos um terço das mulheres alguma vez na vida. Tem variadas conseqüências sobre a saúde física, mental e ginecológica da mulher, as que dependem em grande parte do atendimento recebido logo após a violência. Infelizmente, a maior parte dos serviços de emergência não estão preparados para prestar atendimento adequado. O atendimento deve ser multidisciplinar e incluir anamnese e exame clínico cuidadosos utilizando exames laboratoriais, tratamento das lesões físicas e da crise emocional, prevenção da gravidez e de doenças de transmissão sexual, incluídos HIV/AIDS e com seguimento de pelo menos seis meses. PALAVRAS-CHAVE:Violência sexual; Agressão; Estupro; Violência; Mulheres maltratadas ABSTRACT Gender-based violence is related to the power imbalance between men and women that is present, to a greater or lesser degree, in all societies. It was recognized as a human rights problem by the UN relatively recently. It includes emotional, physical and sexual violence. Sexual violence is the extreme form of gender violence, usually accompanied by the other types of violence. Its prevalence is difficult to determine, but it most probably affects at least one third of women some time in their life. It has multiple consequences to women's physical and gynecological health, which depends in great part on the quality of the care the woman received immediately after the assault. Unfortunately, most emergency health services, including those in women's hospitals, are rarely prepared to provide the correct care for these women. Care should be multidisciplinary and involves crisis treatment, meticulous clinical examination with complementary auxiliary methods, treatment of physical lesions, prevention of pregnancy and of sexually transmitted infections and AIDS, and follow-up for at least six months after the aggression.

“…Most sexually active people can remember at least one incidence of engaging in a sexual activity they later regretted (e.g., Dickson, Paul, Herbison, & Silva, 1998;Galperin et al, 2012;Oswalt, Cameron, & Koob, 2005) such as, for example, infidelity, unprotected and/or unsafe intercourse, or an episode in which one has gone "too far" too early. In the heat of the moment we obviously make decisions that are not always in line with our moral ideals and behavioral standards valued in less "hot" states.…”

“…Social and peer pressure may arise from the portrayal of sex as glamorous and pleasurable while negative consequences and the responsibilities involved in sexual relationships are seldom portrayed 2 . Although more liberal attitudes of the society have influenced the behaviour of the current generation of young people, few studies have considered the views of young people themselves about early sexual intercourse even though they have to bear the consequences 2 . Age at first sexual intercourse is a marker of behavioural and health risks 3 and is an important indicator for exposure to heterosexual Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) transmission 4 .…”

“…During unprotected sex with an HIV+ person the virus binds with the cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) receptors in the lining of the genital tracks or anal tract of the uninfected partner 5 . Furthermore, early sexual intercourse is associated with subsequent high-risk behaviours, including having multiple sexual partners, lower levels of condom use and increased likelihood of Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) and unintended pregnancy 6 which may result in long term health and social disadvantages 2 . Age at first sexual intercourse is more likely to be associated with extramarital sex, multiple sexual partners, low condom usage, higher risk of STI and HIV 7 .…”

“…Age at first sexual intercourse may be a predictor of future sexual behaviour and sexual risk. Children are exposed to sexual images through the media 2 . Worldwide, the technology in mobile phones is improving on a daily basis, children are able to download pornography videos and watch them, subsequently their desire for sex as well as the likelihood of engaging in sexual intercourse elevates.…”

Age at first sexual intercourse may be a predictor of future sexual behaviour and an important indicator for exposure to HIV transmission. The purpose of the study is to establish risk factors associated with age at first intercourse among Lesotho women aged 15 to 49 years. The data used came from the 2009 Lesotho Demographic and Health Survey and probit models were applied for analysis. It was found that women who have had their first sexual intercourse at age 16 or below were at risk of being married at age 18 or below (p < 0.001), are likely not to make it to secondary school (p < 0.001) and having the highest chance of not have known about the AIDS disease as compared to women who have had their sexual intercourse after the age of 16 years (p < 0.05). Delaying entry into sexuality could be safer and more secure to protect the sexual and reproductive health in young women. The more time women spend at school the less likely that they can engage in sexual intercourse at a young age (Afr. J Reprod Health 2016; 20[2]: 34-42).
