\n To improve access, service hours and online consultation channels<\/strong> have been expanded, \n enabling students to seek support after office hours and on holidays<\/strong> through anonymous online counseling. \n Female students can conveniently obtain guidance on sexual and mental health concerns. \n The service also supports male reproductive health issues<\/strong>, including sexually transmitted infections (STIs), \n reaching around 15 users per year<\/strong>. \n A satisfaction survey revealed that 85% of users were satisfied<\/strong> with the service received.\n <\/p>\n\n

\n Through the Thanyarak Club<\/strong>, a student-led initiative under the Faculty of Public Health<\/strong> \n and the Faculty of Science and Technology<\/strong>, \n students participated in breast cancer self-screening activities<\/strong>. \n The project trained 260 student leaders<\/strong> to advocate and teach breast self-examination (BSE)<\/strong> \n techniques to university staff and community members, \n with a total of 2,212 individuals screened to date<\/strong>.\n <\/p>\n\n

\n Access to accurate information<\/strong>, \n welcoming services<\/strong>, and an \n open, nonjudgmental environment<\/strong> empowers students to make responsible decisions regarding their bodies and relationships. \n Such efforts help cultivate \u201cquality citizens\u201d<\/strong> who are well-informed and capable of self-care. \n In the long term, these services help reduce unplanned pregnancies<\/strong>, \n limit STI transmission<\/strong>, and improve overall mental health<\/strong>, \n thereby enhancing academic potential and the overall quality of life within the university community.\n <\/p>\n\n \n
