“Puberty and Hygiene – The Key to a Healthy Future”

One of the most important and responsible stages in a person’s life is the period of puberty. During this time, physiological, psychological, and social changes occur in the body. Teenagers begin to perceive themselves as individuals and develop a new attitude toward their body, behavior, and communication with others. Therefore, forming the right understanding of puberty and personal hygiene is an essential part of raising a healthy generation. Objective: to explain to students the changes that occur during the growth period, to teach them to recognize the features of physiological development, and to promote a healthy lifestyle. For this purpose, under the guidance of the assistant of the “General Medical Practice – 3” Department, Baymakova Gulnur Shulenovna, the 6th-year students of group IDJP-06-25 (general practice interns) visited the school and delivered a lecture, demonstrating specific practical skills. The lecture was conducted for students of grades 7, 8, and 9 of “Bilim Orda” school. Additionally, the students presented slides to explain the material and held a Q&A session, where they answered the students’ questions.
