description In an effort to comprehend the changes in fertility in northwestern Argentina, this study aims to analyze fertility patterns between 2015 and 2020. The rationale for this research lies in the significance of examining how fertility has evolved in recent years in the region. Through a quantitative and descriptive analysis, using data obtained from the Department of Health Statistics and Information (DEIS), Specific Fertility Rates (SFR) and Total Fertility Rates (TFR) were calculated. TFRs were categorized into those falling below 2.1 (replacement level), 1.6 (low fertility level), and 1.3 (very low fertility level) children on average per woman. The low fertility models proposed by the UN in 1963 were applied to analyze SFRs, identifying three fertility regimes: early, extended, and late. The change in SFRs for ages 15 to 19 was observed, along with its relationship with the rest of the age groups. The results reveal that, during the period 2015-2020, fertility in the regional average and in the provinces of the northwest of Argentina decreased significantly. TFRs fell below the minimum replacement threshold and, in some cases, even reached levels of low and very low fertility, ranging from 1.6 to 1.3 children on average per woman. Additionally, there was a concentration of births among women in the 25 to 29-year-old age group.

En busca de comprender los cambios en la fecundidad en el Noroeste argentino, este estudio tiene por objetivo analizar su comportamiento entre 2015 y 2020. La investigación se justifica por la relevancia de examinar cómo ha evolucionado en los últimos años en la región. Mediante un análisis cuantitativo y descriptivo, a partir de los datos obtenidos del Departamento de Estadísticas e Información de la Salud (DEIS), se calcularon Tasas Específicas de Fecundidad (TEF) y Tasas Globales de Fecundidad (TGF). Las TGF fueron categorizadas entre aquellas que se situaron por debajo de 2.1 (nivel de reemplazo), 1.6 (nivel de baja fecundidad) y 1.3 (nivel de muy baja fecundidad) hijos en promedio por mujer. Se aplicaron los modelos de baja fecundidad que la ONU propuso en 1963 para analizar las TEF, identificando tres regímenes de fecundidad: temprano, dilatado y tardío. Se observó el cambio en las TEF de 15 a 19 años y su relación con el resto de los grupos etarios. Los resultados revelan que, durante el periodo 2015-2020, la fecundidad en el promedio regional y en las provincias del NOA experimentó un pronunciado descenso; que las TGF se situaron por debajo del umbral mínimo de reemplazo, e incluso en algunos casos alcanzaron niveles de baja y muy baja fecundidad, oscilando entre 1.6 y 1.3 hijos en promedio por mujer; y que se produjo una concentración de los nacimientos en el grupo de mujeres de 25 a 29 años.
