Embarrassing Bodies - UK has 2nd highest teenage pregnancy in developed world

The UK has the 2nd highest number of teen mums in the developed world. In 2007, 43,000 teens got pregnant, that's 118 a day! The Embarrassing Bodies team put down the text books and let teen mums tell their stories -- which includes excessive farting, piles and contraception.

This new series explores the conditions and ailments that leave many of us a little red-faced and aims to de-stigmatise common complaints. Three doctors -- Dawn Harper, Christian Jessen and Pixie McKenna -- will be throwing open the doors of the clinic in a bid to tackle each condition head on, while attempting to take away the sting of shame.
