What is the number of live births by Mothers aged below 20: Philippines, 2000-2010

This rise in statistics is also reflected in the 2011 annual report of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA)-Philippines, which showed that teen pregnancy in the Philippines went up by 70 percent from 114,205 in 1999 to 195,662 in 2009.

Statistics show that more and more female teenagers are giving birth and becoming mothers at an early age. This is a global trend, but it is striking to note that in the ASEAN region, the Philippines has the third highest teen pregnancy rate and is the only country in the region where the rate is increasing, data from the National Youth Commission showed.
