Bangladesh has one of the highest population densities in the world. The total fertility rate (TFR) has been reduced by more than two thirds since Independence. The current TFR in Bangladesh is 1.930 per woman, [16] globally considered to be below the benchmark for replacement level fertility.
Replacement fertility is the total fertility rate at which women give birth to enough babies to sustain population levels, assuming that mortality rates remain constant and net migration is zero.

All of these economies have fertility rates far below 2.1, the “replacement rate” which allows for a stable population. They haven’t reported a rate above 2.1 for years, if not decades.
"Falling fertility rates are propelling major economies toward population collapse in this century," McKinsey predicted. Some of those economies are on track to see 20%-50% population declines by ...
This is a list of countries showing past fertility rate, ranging from 1950 to 2015 in five-year periods, as estimated by the 2017 revision of the World Population Prospects database by the United Nations Population Division. The fertility rate equals the expected number of children born per woman in her child-bearing years.
The global population is projected to decline by the year 2100, which could have “profound economic, social, and geopolitical impacts in many countries." Experts predict exactly when world’s ...
Its total fertility rate (TFR), once among the highest in the world, has experienced a dramatic decline, from 5.5 in 1985 to 3.7 in 1995, down to 1.9 in 2022, [212] which is below the sub-replacement fertility of 2.1. [213]
