The UK has the highest teenage conception birth rate in Western Europe.
Around one in ten sexually active young people are infected with chlamydia. This is a STI that may have no symptoms but can result in infertility.
By 2004 Tower Hamlets achieved a 25.3% reduction in the local teenage conception rates from 1998 baseline.
Reviews show that some local wards have higher teenage conception rates: Mile End, Bow East, Bow West, East India, Lansbury & Limehouse and Millwall.
