    Teenage pregnancy highlights low contraceptive use among adolescents. Most relied on condoms or natural family planning, with minimal use of hormonal methods or Intrauterine Devices (IUDs).

    Area of Science:

    • Reproductive Health
    • Adolescent Medicine
    • Public Health

    Context:

    • Adolescence presents unique challenges for consistent contraceptive use.
    • Teenagers exhibit lower compliance with prescribed birth control methods.
    • Understanding contraceptive behaviors in pregnant adolescents is crucial for intervention.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze contraceptive utilization patterns among pregnant adolescent girls.
    • To compare contraceptive behaviors between adolescents who underwent abortions and those who became mothers.
    • To identify the most and least common birth control methods used by this demographic.

    Summary:

    • A study observed 792 pregnant adolescents, finding only 12.88% used contraception, often with limited effectiveness.
    • Condoms were most popular (4.23%), followed by natural family planning (6.57%). Hormonal contraception and Intrauterine Devices (IUDs) were rarely used (1.89% and 0.13%, respectively).

  • Significant differences in contraceptive behavior and living standards were noted between adolescents with abortions and teen mothers (p < 0.01), with distinct patterns in hormonal method use (p < 0.05).
  • Impact:

    • Findings underscore the need for improved adolescent reproductive health education and access to effective contraception.
    • Highlights disparities in contraceptive use and outcomes among pregnant teenagers.
    • Informs targeted public health strategies to reduce unintended adolescent pregnancies.
