[Entertainment] [Vietnam Public Health] Pregnant adolescents in Vietnam

Rationale: The number of childbearing adolescents in Vietnam is relatively low but they are more prone to experience adverse outcome than adult women. Reports of increasing rates of abortion and prevalence of STIs including HIV among young indicate a need to improve services and counseling for these groups.

Aim: To describe the prevalence and outcome of adolescent pregnancies in Vietnam; To explore social context and health care seeking behavior of pregnant adolescents; To explore perspectives of health care providers on this issue.

An interesting thesis.
