Unintended pregnancy has long-term consequences that can disproportionately affect teens. Teen pregnancy negatively affects a teen's socioeconomic status. Pregnant teens are less likely to finish their education, more likely to be single parents and less likely to acquire work experience (9). Teen pregnancies are more likely to be medically complicated, with higher maternal and infant morbidity and mortality rates than in older pregnant women (10). Over one third of teen pregnancies end in abortion. Once a teen has one delivery, she is at increased risk to have another. Furthermore, a daughter of a teen pregnancy is more likely to have a teen pregnancy herself (11). Consistent contraceptive use is the only way to prevent pregnancy (and all of its consequences) in sexually-active teens. In a study of OC use in our population, 99% of the pregnancies that did occur were in women who had discontinued their OC during the study period (1).
