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.
