Five hundred mothers were followed during their pregnancy and were divided into two groups, under 20 years (teenagers) and-over 20 years. The complications and outcome of pregnancy were evaluated and the collected data was analyzed by SPSS16. Findings: Five hundred pregnant women were evaluated during their pregnancy. The mean age of teenage women was 18.12 ± 1.11 years and the mean age of over 20-years mothers was 26.53 ± 3.08 years. 15(6%) teenage women have experienced eclampsia, while only 4(1.6%) women over 20 years old had eclampsia (P = 0.01).
