Journal Title: International Journal of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynaecology - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction: The mystery of child birth is especially frightening to an unprepared adolescent. Often there might have been little or no information imparted during prenatal clinical visits. If she is unmarried there may be no special provisions for her over all care. She may experience brief clinical visits with hurry, with doctors who may view her plight with obvious disapproval Methodology: Complete past medical history and history of present pregnancy was taken. Thorough systemic examination and obstetric examination was done. Blood grouping, screening investigations were done and RFT, fundoscopic examination, and ultrasound done wherever necessary Results: Maximum percentage was in the age group of 18 and 19 years. Mean age in present study was 18.5 years. Mean age in cases is 18.5 years and in controls is 22.3 years and it was found to be statistically significant Conclusion: There is not much of difference in the ANC registration between cases and controls.
