Sexual activity during adolescence can lead to unwanted pregnancy, which in turn can result in serious maternal and fetal complications. The present study aimed to evaluate the complications related to adolescent pregnancy, through a systematic review using the Medical Subject Headings: “pregnancy complication” AND “adolescent” OR “pregnancy in adolescence”. Only full original articles in English or Portuguese with a clearly described methodology, were included. No qualitative studies, reviews or meta-analyses, editorials, case series, or case reports were included. The sample consisted of 15 articles; in that 10 were cross-sectional and 5 were cohort studies. The overall prevalence of adolescent pregnancy was 10%, and among the Brazilian studies, the adolescent pregnancy rate was 26%. The cesarean delivery rate was lower than that reported in the general population. The main maternal and neonatal complications were hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, prematurity and low birth weight, respectively. Adolescent pregnancy is related to increased frequency of neonatal and maternal complications and lower prevalence of cesarean delivery.

Aim: The research aimed to describe the profile of pregnant adolescents assisted at the Mineira Maternal and Child Health Center (Huambo, Angola). Method: This was a descriptive study, where the data was submitted to a univariate analysis. A total of 170 pregnant adolescents between 14 and 19 years old were randomly surveyed in one of the largest maternal and child care centres in Huambo in Angola from July to December 2019. Results: The average age of the adolescents was 17.53 years old (SD = 1.28); most were single (85%), had completed the first cycle of primary education (59.0%), did not work (92.4%), lived (50.6%) and grew up (56.5%) with their parents, with the majority having the Catholicism as their religious confession (47.1%). The obstetric data reported that most of the adolescents were nulliparous (84.1%), had had no complications from childbirth (84.7%), and had no previous abortion (91.2%). The majority of the adolescents had their first sexual intercourse between 16–19 years (68.2%) with their boyfriend (77.1%), and it was consensual (91.2%). The majority of the partners were aged between 20–22 years, were working (57.0%) and had assumed paternity (89.0%). Conclusion: The results indicated the presence of multiple factors that may influence adolescent pregnancy and showed a need for a profound rethinking of public health policies regarding adolescence.
