Analysis# Uzbekistan Fertility Rate
Uzbekistan's fertility rate stands at 3.486 births per woman in 2024, representing a dramatic 47.3% decline since 1960. The country peaked at 6.878 births per woman in 1962, reflecting post-war population growth and limited family planning access. By 2012, the rate had fallen to its historic low of 2.337 births per woman, driven by increased female education, urbanization, and contraceptive availability.
After hitting its minimum in 2012, Uzbekistan's fertility rate has experienced a sustained upward trajectory for over a decade. The rate climbed from 2.564 in 2016 to 3.486 in 2024, a 35.9% increase in just eight years. This reversal suggests changing family preferences, potential policy shifts, or demographic momentum among younger generations. The consistent year-over-year growth indicates this upward trend will likely continue in the near term.
