Introduction:

pregnancy in adolescence is a concern of these times that affects, to a greater or lesser extent, all regions of the world; to such an extent that it is considered a health problem.

In addition, some consequences were described for both the mother and her child, such as haemorrhage, prolonged labor, maternal and perinatal death.

Conclusions:

pregnancy during adolescence was considered a worldwide concern, with repercussions also on the quality of life of the family and community.
