Context
Teenagers are assets for the country's future, but they are also associated with a variety of difficulties. Unwanted pregnancy is one of the most common issues among young women..
Objectives
The study's goal is to use the HEADSSS Assessment to examine risk factors for unintended pregnancy and develop evidence-based recommendations to improve adolescent reproductive health.
Methods
The research is a case control study with two groups, cases and controls. Each group had a sample of 49 respondents. The inclusion criteria were young women aged 15 to 19, who were pregnant or postpartum and confessed that they did not desire the pregnancy. HEADSSS Assessment is used in data collection. The acquired data was then examined using an inferential test, logistic regression with an alpha value of 0.05.
Results
The results indicated that there were no differences between the two groups in their influence on unplanned pregnancy, as indicated by the p-values for age (p-value 0.798), education level (p-value 0.742), and marital status (p-value 0.192). After that, a logistic regression analysis of the overall HEADSSS score in connection with unintended pregnancy revealed a p-value of 0.001 for differences between the two groups. This indicates a difference between the case groups and the control group's HEADSS scores.
Conclusions
The HEADSSS evaluation has demonstrated efficacy in identifying, developing, and implementing suitable treatments for young women, ensuring that they are prepared and capable of embracing pregnancy, the postpartum phase, and the birth of their child.
