Australian Statistics

Introduction

This page links to the current online resources available to explore Australian population and birth data. The Australian Bureau of Statistics has detailed demographical information about the Australian population.

Over the last 30 years there has been a decrease in teenage women having children, with most women now have children when they are older (28-31 age), but older women (40+) are also decreasing. The births text excerpt below is an analysis of birth trends this century in Australia from Australia Now (ABS).

A separate body, Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) National Perinatal Statistics Unit, also keeps accurate Australia-wide statistics on birth related issues including assisted reproductive technologies and major congenital malformations in Australia.

Undergraduate medical discussion of this data occurs in the BGD Tutorial - Applied Embryology and Teratology.
