There are several factors that can contribute to teenagers engaging in premarital sex, including peer pressure, curiosity, influence from media and pornography, lack of comprehensive sex education, hormonal changes, desire for intimacy or love, and a need for acceptance or validation. Each individual's circumstances and personal motivations can vary.

Why do hormones cause teens to engage in specific high risk behaviors?

As you grow older and start to do certain actions, the hormones begin to increase and shake. For example, if you have sex, the hormones are most likely to be active. Most teenagers are unknown to sex and get extremely curious what it would be like (It is proven that teenagers think 80% of their free time about sex). So, teenagers are unknown to it and want to know what it's like. Trying to make a feeling out of it (when you think about sex) makes the hormones shake because you are unknown to the feeling, you don't know how you'll react to it, or how it feels. Risk behaviors have to do with the things you do, and hormones trigger when something unknown is present.
