AB  - Aim: To make a comparison between adolescents and primigravid adults ( between 19 and 35 years old)who delivered in Kırşehir at 2016 regarding maternal hemoglobin and hematocrit levels, Apgar scores ofnewborns, fetal birthweights and mode of delivery.Materials and methods: The files of patients who delivered in Ahi Evran University Training and ResearchHospital between 01.01.2016 and 31.12.2016 were investigated. The primigravid pregnants were allocatedinto two groups as group 1 aged 18 and lower and group 2 aged between 19 and 35. Groups were comparedin terms of maternal hemoglobin and hematocrit levels, Apgar scores of newborns, fetal birthweights andmode of delivery.Results: 118 patients were included in the study. There was 53 pregnant in group 1 and 65 pregnant in group2. The mean age of adolescents was 17,51 ± 0,72, and the mean age of adults was 23,95 ± 4,43. There wasno statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of maternal hemoglobin and hematocritlevels, fetal birth weights and first and fifth minutes Apgar scores of newborns (p˂0,069, p˂0,128, p˂0,128,p˂0,391, p˂0,773, p˂0,921).Cesarean section rate of adolescents was significantly lower than that of adults(p = 0.002). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups according to cesarianindications (p = 0,450).Conclusion: Because the mean age of adolescents was high and only primigravid adult pregnant wereincluded in the control group there was no significant difference between the groups in terms of maternalhemoglobin and hematocrit levels, fetal birthweights and first and fifth minutes Apgar scores of newborns.Cesarian section rate of adolescents was significantly lower than that of adults. There was no statisticallysignificant difference between the groups according to cesarian indications.
