The very objective of this study is to describe sexual and reproductive behaviour aspects as well as to analyse the type of abortion in question.METHOD:A descriptive method carried out through interviews by means of a questionnaire was applied and it was duly structured for the data gathering from 201 adolescents facing incomplete abortion subjected to uterine curettage in hospitals which are part of the Stately Run Health Programme, in Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil, between the months of March 2008 and April 2009.RESULTS: The pregnancy data regarding the type of abortion reached the following numbers: 1.99% of spontaneous abortion and 98.01% of provoked abortion and the data was obtained through classified information from the World Health Organization. From the above cited data, 81.59% were certainly provoked; 9.95% were probably provoked; 6.47% were possibly provoked. Amongst the adolescents whom actually admitted the induction to abortion, 127 (77.44%) referred to and reported the use of misoprostol. The profiled adolescents running the risk of provoking abortion is aged above 15 years old; with a stable partner; they are mullatos; they did not use contraceptive methods during the sexual relationships; the average age for the beginning of their sexual activities was 15 years old; they did not plan gestation, but wished for pregnancy; they were first time pregnant females; with a gestational age below 15 weeks.CONCLUSION: It is hereby recommended a higher and major public investment in assistance programmes concerning the use of contraceptive methods amongst adolescents duly respecting their sexual and reproductive rights thus contributing towards the reduction of abortion incidence, considering the fact that the said adolescents are becoming pregnant and looking for abortion as a solution for their unplanned pregnancy.(AU)
