Adolescent mental health issues are a serious issue that can be treated or prevented. They are also rather frequent. Adolescent patients of obstetricians and gynecologists are far more likely to present with one or more mental health issues. Some of these disorders may make it difficult for a patient to comprehend or express her health issues and properly follow treatment recommendations. Anovulatory cycles and different menstrual abnormalities can be brought on by conditions that disrupt the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis or the medicines used to treat them. Teenagers with psychiatric problems may be receiving psychopharmacological medications that might lead to galactorrhea and menstrual irregularities. Adolescents with mental illnesses frequently act out or use drugs, which raises their chance of engaging in risky sexual behavior that could lead to pregnancy or STDs. The task of weighing the potential risks of fetal injury with the potential hazards of insufficient treatment is particularly difficult when treating pregnant teenagers who use psychopharmacologic medications.
