Q: Teen Pregnancy And the Risks.

Does anyone know if there is a higher or lower chance of miscarriage when you are pregnant and only a teen? Or are all of the chances the same?

I don't know if there is any difference at all with risk.. So I figured I would ask.

Thanks!!

I believe miscarriage rate is the same but later in pregnancy your more prone to other risks and complications like(gestational diabetes, pre eclampsia) im not saying your going to get them but because ur age ur more at risk for them!!
