Teenage pregnancy, unsafe abortion methods and the high incidence of HI V infections among young people are of great concern to the South African public.

A purposive sampling technique that enabled experts such as health workers to identify suitable candidates for the investigation was employed. Twenty-four (24) adolescents residing in the predominantly rural area of Nkumpi-Lepelle in the Limpopo Province agreed to participate in the focus group interviews.
