Yes. Fertility peaks between 16 & 18 (those were the ages when women traditionally would start breeding) and basically decline from there.
(EDIT: Also, teens are less informed about birth control and are less likely to use the pill)

According to the Mayo Clinic, a woman's fertility peaks between the ages of 20 and 24. However, fertility rates remain relatively constant through the early 30s, after which they begin to decline:
At age 30 to 35, fertility is 15 to 20 percent below maximum. From age 35 to 39, the decrease is 25 to 50 percent. From 40 to 45, the decrease is 50 to 95 percent.
Fertility Fact #1: Overall good health isn't necessarily a sign that you (or your partner, for that matter) are fertile.
Fertility Fact #2: Your weight affects your ability to conceive.

Well, it depends on the person and biological factors, but no.
then again, depends on what you mean by adults, if byy adults you mean someone who is over the age of 40 then YES. but from puberty (12-13) until age 40, it's the same.
If the teenager has irregular periods (which most do) than that could either make her MORE fertile, or LESS fertile (more if she gets it often, like 3 days every 3-4 weeks; less if she gets it once every 2-6 months, and yes that does exist lol)
Once a teenager becomes sexually active OR hits around the age of 16-19 (different for each girl) than her period is more stable, like once a week every month, exact time as well. And that would make her as Fertile as any adult (under the age of 40 of course)
I'm guessing you get my drift now :)

No, fertility is a personal matter not an age issue. It seems that teen girls are becoming increasingly irresponsible and that teens are discovering sex at a much younger age than before.

For the majority, the age of the most sexual fertility is around 18. It's the time where most girls are the horniest -- meaning, they have the biggest desire to reproduce. Their estrogen levels have skyrocketed, and they're basically feening to have a baby (on an animalistic level).

I don't know a fact based answer, but there seems to be a lot more teen mothers than adult mothers. Maybe teen girls are just easier and too stupid to use contraception properly.

On average no. But adults tend to use birth control with more consistency and therefore have less of the pesky unplanned pregnancies.

No, once you go through puberty, age isn't a factor (until over 30).
