description Adolescent pregnancy has been widely investigated by researchers, both in Brazil and in other countries, mostly from the 80's on, when this phenomenon started to be faced as a public health problem. Thus, this study aims to evaluate and reflect on the profile of pregnant adolescents users of a Basic Health Unit of Santa Maria - RS. We have used a questionnaire containing closed and open questions about sexuality, contraception, maternity and life project. From a content analysis of information, one can see a variety of experiences related to the phenomenon of teenage pregnancy. Thus, it is emphasized that it is important to assess the individual story of teenage pregnancy, because pregnancy and motherhood take on different meanings, depending on family history and socio-cultural context in which they are embedded.
