Britain worst for teenage pregnancy – Telegraph

Britain worst for teenage pregnancy – Telegraph: “Britain worst for teenage pregnancy Last Updated: 2:14am BST 18/10/2007 Britain has the highest teenage pregnancy rate in western Europe, according to a worldwide report into sexual and reproductive health risks to women. The authors of the report A Measure of Survival: Calculating Women’s Sexual and Reproductive Risk warned that teenagers, whose pregnancies were often unplanned, run a higher risk of complications in pregnancy and childbirth. The report also found that while Britain was one of the safest countries for pregnancy and childbirth, it was still only 19th safest – behind countries including Croatia, Cuba and the Czech Republic.”
