Teenage pregnancy is formally defined as a pregnancy in a young woman who has not reached her 20th birthday when the pregnancy ends, regardless of whether the woman is married or is legally an adult (age 14 to 21, depending on the country). In everyday speech, the speaker is usually referring to unmarried minors who become pregnant unintentionally.

In our country most of the teenager whether male or female has no clear Idea regarding Cotraception. We senior citizen thinks if we will teach them about Contraception then they will be habituated in regular sexual intercource.But I personally want to ask them you the biggest hed  till today keep them in darkness , but u cant prevent teenage pregnancy. In our Counrty when a teenager get pregnant then parents want to keep this matter secret from  society. Very often they search quack(hature)  to abort it. By this way they engenger life of the teenager.
