title: Pregnancy in the young teenage woman.
abstract: Since 1967 the number of delivered young teenage women has gradually decreased. During the same period the number of therapeutic abortions among these young women has increased, probably to a sufficient extent to explain the decreased nativity. There is no evidence in this study of any effect of more extended sex and contraceptive education in schools.
