The most affected of this phenomenon are developing countries just like Africa, Philippines and other developing countries who are economically poor.

World Health Organization says that as of 2019, adolescents aged 15–19 years in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) had an estimated 21 million pregnancies each year, of which approximately 50% were unintended and which resulted in an estimated 12 million births (1)(2).
