Sex education in Akita prefecture stems from the higher than national average in the 1990s of artificial abortion in Akita prefecture among girls in the 15-19 age group. This situation prompted a sex education lecturer to be dispatched to all high schools throughout the prefecture, by the Prefectural Office of Education within the Prefectural Board of education. In conjunction, the Prefectural Medical Association found that in Akita prefecture, births to young mothers and abortion numbers were higher in relationship with the increase of HIV/AIDS cases throughout Japan. Based upon the Board of Education's 2003 projection, doctors were thus dispatched and sent to the Education Office to begin lectures to all schools. These lectures stressed the importance of one's life, sexually transmitted diseases, sexual relations, pregnancy, childbirth, contraception and abortion. These lectures have been conducted at the junior high school level as well as the high school level ever since. From 2003, I have been in charge of Akita prefecture's sex education lectures as lectures and researcher helpingto improve young peoples' knowledge of sex education. This includes correct knowledge of sexually transmitted infections which is influenced by the flood of correct and incorrect information from social media. From these lectures we have taught the importance of women's mental and physical health life with compassion to others. Thus, this paper introduces sex education lectures targeted at junior high school and high school students.
