Young people speak about sex

BBC Scotland's health correspondent Eleanor Bradford attended one of NHS Glasgow's 20 Sandyford clinics.

She met young people seeking help about their sexual relationships, past and present.

The Sandyford Initiative is supported by Glasgow City Council and all its services are free of charge.

Here, three youngsters speak anonymously about their sexual experiences.


"Sophie"
"Sophie" - 14

I don't have a boyfriend at the moment, but I have lost my virginity. He said if you love me you'd do it.


"Jasmine"
"Jasmine" - 14

I'm still a virgin - I'm not ready yet. The boys screw up their faces and get angry about it, but I just shrug it off.


"Gary"
"Gary" - 16

I've got a girlfriend, she's 16 too and we're in a sexual relationship. Her parents don't know, but mine do.
