Abstract

Adolescent pregnancy is a pregnancy that occurs in young women aged 14-19 years old which are almost three times more at risk because they are mentally immature resulting in a lack of fulfillment of nutritional requirements during pregnancy. The incidence of anemia in pregnant women is quite high because most have not realized the importance of prevention of anemia and the danger posed. This study is aimed to determine the association between adolescent pregnancies and the incidence of anemia. This research method uses an analytical survey design with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study is all third trimester pregnant women at Kemalang Health Center. This study used total sampling technique with a sample of 192 third trimester pregnant women.

For adult pregnant women, respondents who are not suffering from anemia is 78.6%, and those with mild anemia is 8.4%. The conclusion of this study is association between the adolescence pregnancy and the incidence of anemia in third trimester pregnant women with p value 0.034.
