摘　　要：Given the increase in pornography use among adolescents over the years,we discuss the impact of its use on sexual health development as well as the role of primary care providers(PCPs)in assessing use and providing sexual health education.While pornography use is often viewed negatively,it is important to develop unbiased understanding of the use in order to provide non-judgemental,adolescent-focused and educational care.As PCPs are often the first point of contact when adolescents experience medical and behavioural health concerns,it is essential for them to be equipped to screen for pornography use effectively,create a confidential and comfortable environment to talk about pornography use and sexuality,and be informed of ways to promote open discussion between youth and parents.In addition to PCP involvement,parental collaboration,knowledge and comfortability with discussing pornography use with their child are powerful tools in understanding and navigating pornography use in this population.This special communication seeks to provide an objective view of adolescents’pornography use,guidelines for screening of pornography use and ways to facilitate conversations about the use between adolescents and caregivers.
