BANGALORE: The Bangalore Society for Obstetrics and Gynaecology (BSOG) will set up adolescent health clinics in schools and colleges for free consultation on teenage pregnancies and related health hazards.

Speaking to presspersons here on Friday, Sheela V. Mane, president of BSOG, said that teenagers who become pregnant usually do not know whom to consult for their problems and they may go to unqualified doctors for abortions and end up with more problems. "These health clinics will help such teenagers," she said.
