Abstract

Background: Vietnam is one of the five countries with the highest abortion rate in the world and the teenage abortion rate in Vietnam is the highest among Southeast Asian countries [3]. Because of the increasing prevalence of teenage abortion, there is a need for a comprehensive assessment of psychology and knowledge of adolescents, and the effectiveness and impact of adolescent abortion. Objective:  Find the rate of medical abortion and characteristics of adolescent pregnant women. Evaluation of treatment outcomes. Subjects and research methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study. Randomized sample of teenage pregnant women who came to the clinic and requested to end their pregnancies from June 2020 to June 2021. Result: The average age of teenage pregnant women was 16.7 +/- 1.05. The educational level of adolescent pregnant women was from junior high school and above. The percentage of adolescent pregnant women living in urban and rural areas was similar (52% versus 48%). Most teenage pregnant women were living with their parents (70%). The proportion of adolescent pregnant women without children was high (98%). Most of the cases (62%) were between 5-7 weeks gestation. The success rate of medical abortion in adolescent pregnant women was high (86%). Between 5-7 weeks gestation, the success rate of medical abortion is about 87%. Conclusion: The success rate when applying medical abortion in adolescent pregnant women is high (86%).
