- W2243316323 abstract "Objective: We determined the association between adolescent pregnancy and adult height among Black females living in Soweto, South Africa. Design: Using data from the Birth-to-Twenty cohort, we analyzed 54 matched pairs, for which a girl who got pregnant before the age of 17 years was matched with a girl who did not get pregnant, based on age at menarche and the height-for-age z score in the year before the case got pregnant. The two groups were compared with respect to adult height, defined as height (cm) at the oldest age (17 y, 18 y, or 20 y) for which this measurement was available. Results: Average age at conception for the adolescent pregnancy group was 15.9 years (range: 13.75 to 16.96 y). Average height at matching for the adolescent pregnancy and comparison groups was 159.4 cm and 159.4 cm, respectively (p=0.81). Mean adult height for the adolescent pregnancy group was 160.4 cm, versus 160.3 cm among the comparison group (p=0.69). Mean change in height from matching to adulthood was 0.99 cm for the adolescent pregnancy group and 0.91 cm for the comparison group (p=0.45). Conclusions: Among 13-16 year old Black girls living in Soweto, South Africa, adolescent pregnancy did not have any impact on adult attained height, possibly due to the fact that adult height had been reached before conception occurred, and the girls entered pregnancy sufficiently nourished to fuel both their growth and the growth of the fetus." @default.
