109 (52.14%) mothers were found anemic while 49(23.44%) cases were found suffering from hypertension. 4.31% complication each was noted in premature rupture of membrane and CPD. Abnormal presentation was noted in 03.35% cases. The complications in teenage pregnancy were found to more in rural in comparison to mothers of urban areas. Thus, the authors reached to the conclusion that more than 50 percent of teenage mothers were found suffering from Anemia, which is a preventable condition by just consuming right kind of food; hence, there is a great need for nutrition education. Similarly about a quarter of teenage mothers were sufferings from hypertensive disorders, which can also be minimized by restricting the salt intake.

Abstract


109 (52.14%) mothers were found anemic while 49(23.44%) cases were found suffering from hypertension. 4.31% complication each was noted in premature rupture of membrane and CPD. Abnormal presentation was noted in 03.35% cases. The complications in teenage pregnancy were found to more in rural in comparison to mothers of urban areas. Thus, the authors reached to the conclusion that more than 50 percent of teenage mothers were found suffering from Anemia, which is a preventable condition by just consuming right kind of food; hence, there is a great need for nutrition education. Similarly about a quarter of teenage mothers were sufferings from hypertensive disorders, which can also be minimized by restricting the salt intake.
