在美国,每年有超过80万的青少年怀孕。大多数少女怀孕是意外的,其中三分之一的怀孕以堕胎告终。与育龄妇女一样,药物流产和手术流产是安全的,青少年也能很好地接受。短期发病率是罕见的,没有长期不良的健康或心理后遗症与简单的流产。青少年在获得人工流产服务方面遇到独特的障碍,延误了护理,增加了人工流产的费用和复杂性。临床医生是为意外怀孕的青少年提供准确信息和支持的关键资源。
Over 800,000 pregnancies occur among adolescents annually in the United States. The majority of teen pregnancies are unintended and one-third of these pregnancies end in abortion. As in older reproductive age women, medical and surgical abortions are safe and well tolerated by adolescents. Short-term morbidity is uncommon and no long-term adverse health or psychologic sequelae are associated with uncomplicated abortion. Adolescents encounter unique barriers in accessing abortion services that delay care and increase the cost and complexity of abortion. Clinicians function as a key resource for accurate information and support for adolescents with undesired pregnancies.
