Hi, thank you for asking healthcare magic.
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns.
Conceiving at the age of 16 would not really pose a problem. It might pose a problem during delivery (especially if you are short because the birth canal would be small) and the risk of giving birth through an operation would increase. Many girls do give birth at that age.
I hope that helps
I wish you well
