Floriane Nsabimana, UNFPA

The purpose of this study was to ascertain if teenage pregnancy has a higher risk of unfavorable pregnancy outcomes. The study employed quarterly data from the DHIS_2 to accomplish this goal, and the Poisson distribution will be used to estimate this phenomenon. The Poisson distribution was used in the study to estimate the association.We used R programming language to analyze data. The findings validate a noteworthy and affirmative correlation. Adolescents in provincial towns where retail is the primary industry were more likely to become pregnant. The findings also show that regions with several health centers tend to have a higher incidence of maternal deaths.
