“…As such, declines in ASFR 15-19 in Mexico are the result of declines in second and higher-order births to adolescent mothers, as is the case elsewhere in the region (Neal et al 2018). The same pattern exists in early adolescent fertility in Mexico: In 1990, 20% of births to adolescents 14 and younger were non-first births, and in 2016, only 1% of births were (Meneses and Ramírez 2018).…”

BACKGROUNDIn 2015 Mexico set a goal to halve its adolescent fertility rate and eliminate childbearing among girls 14 years and younger, but the ambitious goal is severely off track. National estimates show stagnation, and while implementation is targeted at the municipal level, little is known about adolescent fertility in Mexican municipalities. OBJECTIVEThis study estimates trends in subnational parity-specific fertility from 1990 to 2020 at all adolescent ages in 2,469 Mexican municipalities. Importantly, the estimates include the fertility of younger adolescents, and parity progression ratios offer a more accurate picture of the true risk of repeat adolescent childbearing. METHODSThis study uses pooled census data and multilevel logistic regression models to estimate age-and parity-specific municipal population proportions. Modeled estimates are used to calculate second birth parity progression ratios. RESULTSThe analysis reveals that municipal trends see considerable diversity and change. The results unmask 30 years of flux and a surprising pattern of convergence in first births alongside little concordance for second births. CONTRIBUTIONNot only have the estimates not been seen before, but they (1) highlight priorities that

“…Colima 1 is a Mexican state in which the fertility rate for girls aged 12 and 14 years increased from 3.75 in 2010 to 4.34 in 2016 (Meneses and Ramírez, 2019). In 2015, it figured in the top 10 Mexican states with the highest rates of teenage pregnancy, an issue that continues to this day (CONAPO, 2017).…”

Background: Developing sex and sexuality education programmes for adolescents has proved challenging in many parts of the world, especially in contexts where the importance of these programmes is not valued. In such settings, educating about sex and sexuality may also require dealing with detractors who are active in spreading misinformation. Objective: This article identifies contextual barriers encountered by those involved in developing the Échale Neurona programme in Mexico. Team members associated with the programme have been teaching about sex and sexuality in public secondary and high schools since 2016. Methods and design: Grounded theory approach using semi-structured interviews. Interviews took place with 10 participants including health promotion experts and programme officials. The main focus of the interviews was on the contextual limitations encountered when implementing sex and sexuality education workshops. Results: Findings reveal at least three types of barriers hindering the comprehensive sex and sexuality education developed by the programme: institutional, cultural and socio-educational barriers. Conclusion: Contextual barriers associated with family and school environments posed a significant challenge to implementation. Such barriers may facilitate or hinder sex and sexuality education programmes affecting the way young people develop their sex lives and live their sexuality.
