Adolescent sexual and reproductive health refers to the physical and emotional wellbeing of adolescents and includes their ability to remain free from unwanted pregnancy, unsafe abortion and all forms of sexual violence and coercion. Furthermore, pregnancy during adolescence is associated with higher risk of health problems like anemia, sexually transmitted infections, unsafe abortion, postpartum hemorrhage, and mental disorders (like depression). Pregnant adolescents also bear negative social consequences and often have to leave school reducing their employability leading to long-term economic implications. Unmet needs for family planning especially for spacing are high among adolescents.
