Abstract
Although most teenagers have some knowledge of birth control methods, most sexually active adolescents do not use one consistently. Some young women are too apathetic or irresponsible to use birth control, even if the method is available. However, most teenagers do not want to become pregnant. If factual information is given, the method is easily accessible and is acceptable to them, and if they have come to terms with their own sexuality, most young women will accept the responsibility of preventing an unwanted pregnancy.
