Today, many teenagers are sexually active, yet there is not enough sex education to teach them proper contraceptive methods and safe sex. Also, most of these teens do not know the signs of pregnancy; teens usually discover that they are pregnant only when there is already a noticeable bulge in their belly. Had they known earlier, most teens who have had an abortion say that they would have had it performed earlier in the pregnancy. At this point in the pregnancy, they consider a late term abortion as their only choice. It is known that the complications that can occur during pregnancy have a much higher chance of happening if the mother is a teenager.
