Abstract

Objective: This is a review proposes to group the subject that deals with educational corporal education policies in order to expose its benefits to the students' health. Bibliographic review: The human body is the most complex machine known to society. It is there that the main doubts of humanity and the main objects of study of the global sciences hide. Unveiling the good use of the body in order to meet human needs has become an objective linked to the non objectification of human beings. The eroticization of the body has become a social problem for adolescents who have natural changes in the body. The lack of knowledge has caused problems such as teenage pregnancy and early contamination by Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) to increase considerably. The school, an environment common to the vast majority of Brazilian adolescents, opens up as an alternative to modify this reality. Final considerations: The study leans on the possibilities through the school environment to expand the dissemination of scientific knowledge and to promote anatomy as a way of preventively combating social problems of adolescent health.
