The distribution of unintended pregnancy among youth in Ethiopia was nonrandom. Unintended pregnancy prevention strategies among youth need to be targeted on the identified factors. Hence, we recommend creating awareness on sexual and reproductive health rights with special priority to the identified hotspot areas (Amhara, Addis Ababa, Gambella, Northern part of Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Region, and northwest of Oromia region) to reduce unintended pregnancy.
