Abstract: Nowadays sexual and reproductive health (SRH) service is not easily accessible to unmarried youth migrants. Those unmarried youth migrants and medical workers, as suppliers and demanders, are both in confusion. Those unmarried youth migrants are confused about selecting right medical resources. Owing to privacy, attitude of medical officials, time and other issues, some migrant adolescents tend to seek medical service from private clinics. On the other hand, some medical workers render service passively and incompletely. Problems of reproductive health in those unmarried youth migrants are also related with their mental health. The contradictions and misunderstandings about SRH service for unmarried youth migrants were proposed in this paper by comparing suppliers and demanders.
