The research focuses on the awareness of pregnant adolescents in Cebadas, Ecuador, regarding adolescence and related topics. Findings reveal a lack of understanding about the duration of adolescence, although many are aware of general developmental milestones and optimal ages for sexual relations and childbearing. While knowledge of family planning and contraceptive methods exists, usage remains low. The adolescents tend to view teenage pregnancy negatively but lack understanding of its consequences, often receiving information informally, with rural living and marital status influencing their experiences.
