What are the physical risks of teen pregnancy?

Question by Skiddle: What are the physical risks of teen pregnancy?

Best answer:

Answer by MommyToBe
Well depending on how young the teen is, I would think it would be harder on their bodies as opposed to a woman in her 20′s or 30s because if she is young enough, her body is not even fully matured.

As for specifics, I can’t answer that.

  1. Kathryn G says:

    I think preterm labor, for teens under 17 (meaning the baby could be born before 37 weeks)… as far as risks to the mother, I am not sure.

  2. simone says:

    well i was 17.. your more likely to get preeclampsia. though not everyone does. other then that i don’t really remember the risks…

    1) risk of losing your fun social life
    2) risk losing any chance of college
    3) risk losing a cool job
    4) increased chance of cervical cancer (this one ain’t funny – but true) later in life
