Abstract

Despite the decreasing fertility rates in Central America, teen pregnancies continue to be an issue in some countries of the region. Among those countries, Nicaragua has the highest occurrence of teen pregnancies in the region. Teen pregnancies are linked with higher maternal morbidity, social isolation and marginalization of teen mothers. In order to target pregnancies, contraceptive usage in teens must be researched and understood. This research studies the determinants of contraceptive usage among female Nicaraguan teens.
