Abstract

This research has identified the social-demographic and obstetric profile of 121 (one hundred and twenty-one) adolescents in gravidic-puerperal cycle, examined in a public maternity-hospital in Fortaleza-CE. The data were obtained by structured interview and were processed by computer software SPSS 11.0. The results were shown in table form and discussed based in revised literature. The ethical aspects were respected according to Resolution (Law) 196/96. Living through the gravidic-puerperal cycle in adolescence causes negative impacts and consequences to the social-demographic and obstetric development of adolescents. These impairments affect not only the mother, but also the baby, affecting the life prospects of both. Hence, educational programs about adolescent sexual health are necessary in order to prevent high risk to precocious maternity.
