The RH Bill is called the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of 2012. This is a law in the Philippines that gives all people the ability to obtain contraception and maternal care.

The Reproductive Health (RH) Bill, now the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act in the Philippines, has sparked debates among Catholics due to its provisions on contraception and family planning, which some see as conflicting with religious teachings. Some Catholic leaders have opposed the bill, stating that it goes against the teachings of the Church regarding family planning and contraception. However, supporters argue that the bill promotes reproductive health, women's rights, and responsible parenthood.

Sex education in the Philippines includes topics such as reproductive health, family planning, and gender equality. The government has implemented the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of 2012 to provide comprehensive sexual education in schools. Despite efforts to improve sex education, challenges remain due to cultural norms and religious beliefs that affect the implementation of these programs.
