(1) Honduras has the highest adolescent birthrate in Central America, at 137 births for every 1,000 15-19-year-olds. This rate has remained unchanged over the past two decades, despite declines in the birthrate among women in all other age-groups. In absolute numbers, births to adolescents increased by 50% between 1987 and 2001. (2) As of 2001, only one-third of all women aged 20-24 (and only one-seventh of those in rural areas) had completed primary school; less education is associated with a higher likelihood of early childbearing. (3) One-half of 20-24-year-olds give birth by age 20; this proportion is higher among the least-educated women (70%), the poorest women (64%) and those in rural areas (60%). (4) In 2001, 40% of all recent adolescent births were unplanned, and the highest proportion was among those with the most education (48%). Most sexually active 15-19-year-olds (70%) do not want to have a child in the next two years. (5) Despite these reproductive preferences, just one in three sexually active adolescents uses a modern contraceptive method. Overall, 48% of adolescents have an unmet need for effective contraception. (6) High levels of early childbearing coexist with low rates of professional prenatal and delivery care. In 2001, one-third of recent 15-24-year-old mothers did not make a single prenatal care visit. The same proportion gave birth without a medical professional in attendance. (7) Policies and programs that aim to promote adolescents' reproductive health and support their childbearing preferences exist, but they are often not fully implemented and need more official commitment and resources.

(1) Among Nicaraguan women 20-24 years old, six in 10 had entered a union and almost half had had a child before their 20th birthday. (2) A quarter of all births in Nicaragua--35,000 per year--are to 15-19-year-olds. (3) Rural women, who have less education, on average, than their urban counterparts, are more likely than city dwellers to enter a union and become mothers during adolescence. (4) The proportion of 20-24-year-olds who had a child during adolescence is more than twice as high among the poorest as among those in the highest socioeconomic category. (5) Nearly half--45%--of births to adolescent women are unplanned, a level that varies little by women's urban-rural residence and their educational achievement. (6) Among all sexually active women aged 15-19 (in union and not in union), 86% do not want a child in the next two years, and 36% have an unmet need for effective contraception. Unmet need for family planning is equally high in urban and rural areas. (7) The strong link between low educational attainment and early motherhood suggests that improving educational opportunities for girls is a promising way of reducing high levels of adolescent childbearing in Nicaragua.
