Woman launches website to answer questions about sexual health

Heather was a kindergarten teacher who started uploading fiction about women’s sexuality online.

From this, people began writing to her, asking about sexual reproductive health and sex. The teacher wanted to help them and reply, but she didn’t have the means to. So she decided to create her own solution and launch her own website: Scarleteen. This was the first website of its kind, featuring questions and responses about sexual health and sex.

The website is open and provides content for young people about sexual health, sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy, parenting, abortion, etc. The users can ask questions themselves or just check the questions answered and the responses. Scarleteen also features a live chat and an SMS/text service.

The content is open and free, and Heather runs the website with a team of global volunteers.
