ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
It has been recently documented that Romania has the highest prevalence of adolescent pregnancy in Europe. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Therefore, the present study aims to offer a conclusive view of the current situation by assessing a series of parameters in the last 11 years.RESULTS:
Throughout the present manuscript, we showed that 1788 pregnancies occurred in the last 11 years in just one center from the northeastern region of Romania. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (p < 0.05) performed suggests that gestational age does not follow a normal distribution; an interval during which 899 (50.27%) male and 889 (49.72%) female babies were born. There were a total of 1383 (86.00%) deliveries at full-term and 225 (13.99%) were under 37 weeks. Of 1788 teenage girls, 1467 (82.04%) were from the rural area, whereas 321 (17.95%) from the urban area.CONCLUSIONS:
Fortunately, one common feature that we observed was that starting from 2017 there was a significant reduction within the last 2 studied parameters, the situation being much more fluctuating until 2014.
