Answer / Ajay Kumar Patel

Common health concerns among adolescents include sexual and reproductive health issues, substance abuse, and mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression. To address these topics effectively, I provide age-appropriate education on sexual and reproductive health, encourage open conversations about substance use, and screen for mental health disorders regularly. I also work closely with mental health professionals to ensure that adolescents receive the care they need when facing mental health challenges.
