Abstract
(BJOG. 2023;130(9):1016–1027) Research proves a rising risk of suicidal ideation and acts in the year before and the year after giving birth. Suicide is 1 of the 2 main causes of mortality for mothers in France. There is not a solid correlation between nonlethal self-harm and suicide following childbirth, so it is difficult to predict and prevent. Adolescents are at higher risk of nonlethal self-harm, and suicide is the second cause of premature deaths in their age category. Adolescent pregnancy is tied to additional mental disorders, psychosocial problems, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders, which are all risk factors for suicidal actions. This retrospective cohort study was designed to primarily provide insights about nonlethal self-harm risks and mortality in adolescent pregnancies. Secondarily, the study aimed to evaluate the causes of deaths when possible.
