===Antenatal care===
In 2022, UNICEF noted that:

{{blockquote|84 percent of pregnant adolescents aged 15–19 attended at least one antenatal care visit as compared to 88 percent of all women and girls aged 15–49. Fewer adolescent girls received skilled delivery care as compared to all women and girls (77 to 84 percent). Additionally, fewer adolescent girls received postnatal care for themselves as compared to all women and girls (66 percent vs 69 percent).<ref name="UNICEF dec22"/>}}

The agency noted regional disparities, noting that in West and Central Africa, "48 percent of newborns to adolescent mothers had a postnatal contact as compared to 52 percent of newborns to all mothers".<ref name="UNICEF dec22">{{cite web |title=Early childbearing |url=https://data.unicef.org/topic/child-health/adolescent-health/ |website=UNICEF Data |publisher=[[UNICEF]]}}</ref>
