    Some reforms suggested by psychological research policy makers to reduce teenage pregnancy rates that could be implemented are the introduction of better sexual education curriculum to the younger generations, secondly, increase the services of family planning to reach the people more and effect change in external stimuli that influence sexual motivation in young people.

    By strengthening the sexual education curriculum teenagers will be able to understand their sexual feelings as driven by their sex hormones, either estrogen or testosterone. When teenagers are aware of this they will be more likely to accurately assess their strong feelings as biological influences instead of motivations that they should actually carry out, there would be reduction in the rate of teenage pregnancy.

    Secondly, increasing family planning services more to reach more people, the more people are aware of the service and they utilize the service, there would be drastic change rate of teenage pregnancy.
