This study aims to establish a profile of teenage pregnancy (<20 years) at a hospital in Huambo, Angola. Subjects were categorized into two age groups, 10-16 and 17-19 years. We interviewed 381 mothers in the postpartum maternity ward of the Central Hospital of Huambo. Statistical analysis then followed two stages, a descriptive analysis of the study population and analysis through a bivariate 2 × 2 table, using a chi-squared test to evaluate the hypothesis of homogeneity of proportions with a significance level of 5%. Comparing the two groups revealed a more frequent occurrence of problems among mothers under 17 years of age, including a higher frequency of involvement with unemployed parents, more often not living with parents, and fewer prenatal consultations.2200-01-01
