The pace of teen births in the United States has been falling since 2007, according to the CDC, reflecting long-running efforts to increase sex education and access to contraception.
The decrease among teens this year, however, wasn’t as big as in previous years, making it difficult to predict whether the teenage birthrate might plateau or keep falling in future years, researchers said.
In total, there were fewer births in the United States in 2022 than in 2021, reflecting what Chen said may be a sustained downturn in childbearing in the United States and globally. Chen said that was unsurprising, noting that researchers never expected a major post-pandemic baby boom and that the country is experiencing economic uncertainty. On the whole, birthrates may enter a sustained decline, she said.
