“…We found 5.7% of teenage mothers had hypertensive disorder of pregnancy in our study while other studies found found incidence of 14.87%. 17 Intrauterine growth retardation was found higher in teenage mothers (5.71%) than adult population (1.42%) which was similar to study carried out by kyastha et al 18 The probable cause of IUGR and other foetal complications in teenage pregnancy was due to more cases of anaemia and hypertensive disorder of pregnancy. In our study oligohydramnios was found more in adolescent mother than adult mother (3.57% vs 1.42%) but it was found same in both group in study carried out by Kovavisarach et al 19 ( 0.6% vs 0.6%).…”

Introduction: Adolescence is the period between the ages of 10-19 years that encompasses time from onset of puberty to full legal ages (WHO 2002). Objective: The objective of the study was to explore effect of maternal ages on fetomaternal and perinatal outcome. Methods: This is a hospital based retrospective case-control study conducted over 1 year (March 2017 to February 2018) in the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology in Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital to study the antenatal complications and perinatal outcome in adolescent pregnant women as compared to pregnant women of age 20-30 years. Results: During this study period, there were 4980 deliveries out of which adolescent pregnancy were 140(2.8%). Anemia was significantly more in teenage group (16.42% vs 8.57%, p=0.047). Incidence of hypertensive disorders was 5.71% and 1.42% (p=0.05) in teenage and adult group. Proportion of babies with intrauterine growth restriction was 5.71% in teenage and 1.42% (p=0.05) in adult group. Low birth weight babies were significantly higher in teenage group than adult group 16.42% vs 8.57% (p=0.047). NNU admission and apgar score were significantly higher in teenage group 5.71% vs 1.42%. Conclusion: Teenage pregnancies are associated with adverse obstetric and perinatal outcome.

“…The rate of preterm deliveries as seen in our study was found to be similar to the rate of preterm deliveries as reported by Nair A et al, 32 who reported that preterm deliveries were seen in 18.22% of the studied cases. IN this study fetal distress, pre-eclampsia and PROM was reported in 6.69%, 14.87% and 6.50% cases respectively.…”

Background: Teenage pregnancy can be defined as pregnancy that occurs after menarche up to the age of 19 years. It is one of the important causes of maternal as well as neonatal morbidity and mortality. There is an increased incidence of preterm deliveries in teenage girls with its associated complications in newborn such as increased incidence of hyaline membrane disease in newborn baby, anaemia of prematurity, neonatal hypoglycaemia, hyperbilirubinemia and need for neonatal intensive care unit admissions. Aims and Objectives: 1.To assess the quantum of problem of teenage pregnancy. 2. To ascertain the different risk factors associated with teenage pregnancy. 3. To evaluate outcome of pregnancy in teenage mothers. 4. Todetermine the extent and association of teenage pregnancy with poor obstetric outcome. Materials and Methods: It was a hospital based prospective case control study. All teenage pregnant patients who were admitted during the study period were included in the study and a representative group of equal number of non-teenage pregnant women who were admitted during the study period were included in the study. For statistical purposes p value less than 0.05 was taken as statistically significant. Results: The most common single complication in teenage pregnancies was found to be preterm deliveries which was seen in 15 (12%) patients followed by fetal distress (10.40%) Pre-Eclampsia (6.40%) and PROM (4.80%). Amongst non-teenage pregnancies the common complications seen were fetal distress (17.60%), PROM (8.80%). The incidence of PPH was found to be high in teenage pregnancies as compared to non-teenage pregnancies. The comparison of the neonates on the basis of incidence of low birth weight (LBW) showed that more LBW babies were born to teenage mother as compared to non-teenage pregnancies and the difference was found to be statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Teenage pregnancy is associated with increased incidence of maternal as well as neonatal complications. In additions to maternal and neonatal complications it also has an immense impact on psychosocial consequences on teenage mothers.

“…In the present study 26% of teenagers were married, reflecting the general figure of marital status in this age group in our country as shown in previous studies (Ekanem AD, 2001 (Nair A, 2015)and reach a level of 99.65% in Egypt. In this study, only 17% of teenagers attained tertiary level of education.…”

“…Even when those with a secondary level of education are added, the educational level in the older group was still higher. This is different from results of the most recent Demographic and Health Surveys conducted in 2011 in Cameroon, where the girls of 15 to 19 years old were more literate with 62.7% being at secondary or tertiary level compared to 54% of women aged 20 to 24 years old at the same level of education (Nair A, 2015). The difference may be explained by the hospital-based data that might differ from population-based data.…”
