In Tennessee between 1975 and 1978, birth rates among teenagers decreased while they increased among older age groups. This trend was unlike previous years and coincided temporally with the increased availability of legal abortion services in Tennessee and the special efforts to prevent unwanted pregnancies among teenagers. Increased use of family planning services was significantly associated with the drop in the fertility rate for Black teenagers; legal abortion use was significantly associated with the change in the fertility rate for Black females aged 20 years or older
