Abstract
The present work originated from the supervised internship at Hospital da Sagrada
Família. From the observation, it was possible to notice that there was a large
percentage of pregnant adolescents in that unit. Because of this, we broadened our
view on the proposed theme and, knowing that it is one of the expressions of the
social issue, we verified the need to discuss more about the subject and understand
about teenage pregnancy. To this end, we seek to deepen the studies on teenage
pregnancy and the physiological, psychological, social, cultural and historical factors
present from the point of view of authors and their research. We also seek to
understand this phenomenon and its repercussions in the family and social spheres
and the possibilities of access to social rights. The generating question was: What
are the risks and repercussions of early pregnancy on the physical and psychosocial
health of adolescents? In order to achieve the answer, it developed as a general
objective: to identify the risk factors in the health of adolescents and their
biopsychosocial aspects during early pregnancy. To this end, a bibliographic search
was carried out and, subsequently, content analysis. It was possible to reflect on
teenage pregnancy as a social phenomenon, present today and its complexity, from
a qualitative approach in a socio-historical perspective, reaching some conclusions: it
is up to the professionals, responsible for the formulation of public policies among
which are the social workers, consider these realities, so that they can intervene
directly in the issues that most express the reasons why, even today, in this
computerization society many adolescents become pregnant at this stage.
