[State of play of teenage pregnancies]

Abstract

Teenage pregnancy represents a global risk. In France, in 2016, 1.14% of pregnancies concerned 15-17 year olds. Rare in our societies, they are socially condemned. A medical-psychological-sociological literature review shows that, beyond the contraceptive failure or the accidental nature evoked, it is essential to spot high risk situations and focus on the meaning behind these teenage pregnancies.
