“…Consistent with our study, Figueredo et al reported that the prevalence of preeclampsia was lower in adolescent pregnant mothers [21]. However, in other study, the prevalence of preeclampsia in teenage pregnant women was higher than in young pregnant women [22]. The possible reasons for this discrepancy are the different study area and the characteristics of subjects.…”

Introduction: Delayed childbearing is increasing. Increased maternal age has been associated with increased risk of pregnancy complications. On the other hand, the adolescent pregnancy has traditionally been considered high-risk, especially in developing countries. Objective: This study aimed to compare the adverse pregnancy outcomes in different age groups of pregnant women. Materials and Methods: The analytical study with cross-sectional design was conducted on 345 pregnant women referred to one of the maternity hospitals in Rasht, Iran in 2018 who were selected by sequential sampling method. They were followed from gestational age >37 weeks until delivery in 3 groups: <19 years, 19-35 years and >35 years. The data collection tool was a two-part researcher-made questionnaire which surveys demographic, fertility, and socioeconomic information and adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (Chi-square test, Fisher’s exact test, Kruskal-Wallis test, ANOVA, Bonfrroni test, Spearman correlation test, and multiple linear regression analysis). Results: The highest prevalence of maternal diabetes mellitus (29.7%) and cesarean section (72.46%) were reported in the age group >35 years. The highest frequency of premature rupture of membranes (18.8%) and abnormal fetal presentation (13.8 %) were reported in age groups <19 years and 19-35 years, respectively. Among maternal outcomes, maternal diabetes, abnormal fetal presentation, premature rupture of membranes and delivery by cesarean section were significantly different between three groups (P<0.05). There was a significant difference between maternal age and neonatal outcomes in ages groups <19 years and 19-35 years (P<0.05). Multiple linear regression model showed that the maternal age <19 years was a predictor of adverse neonatal outcomes. The group <19 years reported more adverse outcomes than the age group 19-35 years (β=0.282, 95% CL: 0.002-0.561, P=0.049). Conclusion: All age groups of pregnant women faced some pregnancy outcomes. Due to Iran’s new plan to encourage childbearing, prenatal screening, and receiving more prenatal care, we recommend pregnant women to participate in childbirth preparation training courses.

“…A study done by Talwar and Venkatesh also observed similar results at SDM Medical College in India. 16 Another study done by Mukhopadhyay et al, at RG Kar Medical College also showed similar findings. 17 The proportion of teenage pregnancy varied among various educational levels and religions of mothers.…”

“…21 A similar view was expressed in some other studies also. 7,8,12,16 The mechanism of preterm labor among adolescent mothers is still unclear. However, one physiological reason is the immaturity of the uterine blood supply in young mothers which leads to an increase in prostaglandin production leading to preterm labor.…”

Background: Teenage pregnancy is a pregnancy in a woman within 10–19 years of age groups. It results from a number of factors such as early age at marriage, illiteracy, poverty, premarital sex, lack of awareness, and access to contraception. Teenage pregnancy imposes serious social and medical implications relating to both maternal and child health. It is a worldwide public health problem in both developed and developing countries. Aims and Objectives: The study was conducted in a rural hospital of North 24 Parganas in West Bengal. The primary objective was to compare different maternal and perinatal outcomes of teenage primigravida mothers with those of adult primigravida mothers. The secondary objective was to assess the association between various sociodemographic factors on the prevalence of teenage pregnancy. Materials and Methods: The cross-sectional hospital record-based study includes a sample of 78 study subjects each in cases and comparison group. Records were taken from June 2019 to December 2019. Results: Of a total of 379 labor room admissions during the study period, 86 (22.69%) were of the teenage group and 8 cases were excluded from the study. A total of 78 teenage pregnancies were analyzed and compared with 78 adult pregnancies. The mean (standard deviation) age of teenage in our study was 18.10±0.63 and that of the comparison group was 22.74±1.68 years. Results revealed that teenage mothers had a statistically higher proportion of anemia (OR=2.30, P=0.05) and low-birth-weight babies (OR: 3.6, P=0.05) compared to adult-primigravida mothers, respectively. Conclusion: Teenage pregnancy is still a rampant and important public health problem in India with unfavorable perinatal outcomes and needs to be tackled on a priority basis.

“…Muitas adolescentes não estão preparadas física, psicológica, emocional, social e economicamente para viverem a realidade de ser mãe, assumindo inúmeras responsabilidades e dificuldades (DIAS; TEIXEIRA, 2010). Além disso, a gravidez nesse período sobrecarrega a adolescente duplamente, pois seu corpo se prepara para a reprodução, ao passo que mantém seu processo de crescimento, repercutindo em grande risco (TALAWAR, 2013).…”
