Abstract
Teenage pregnancy remains a public health problem in Spain both in its consequences and its maintained rates. In March 2013 the group PrevInfad has updated its recommendations on the issue and in this paper we present a general introduction to the subject, in terms of its magnitude, and we explain the results of the review of the evidence on the effectiveness of the counseling from pediatric primary care and the group’s recommendations on this issue.
