Abstract
⺠Adolescent pregnant girls were more likely to have malaria and anaemia compared to the adult pregnant women. ⺠No differences were observed with the use of IPTp-SP between the adolescent pregnant girls and the adults. ⺠Among those with no IPTp-SP use, adolescent pregnant girls were twice likely to have malaria infection than the adult pregnant women.
