Leading causes of death are circulatory (37.9%) including cardiovascular (19.1%) and cerebrovascular (9.8%), respiratory diseases (11.4%) of which pneumonia 6.7%, neoplasms 11%, and diabetes (6.3%).
The Philippines has released its official 2024 marriage (25Nov2025), birth (22Dec2025), and death (30Jan2026) reports. Key overall findings are presented in this article for information and reference. I will prepare some breakdown analyses of regional and cause of death data for publication in coming weeks.
2024 Population Births and Deaths
Compared to 2023, 2024 registered births fell by 6.2% while deaths rose by 1%.
There were 705,714 (51.9%) male births and 653,275 (48.1%) female births. The drop in female births between 2023 and 2024 was 6.03%, while the drop in male births was 6.3%. Total loss of births since 2012, the Philippines peak birth year, is 24.1%. The majority of this loss (18.8%) occurred between 2019 and 2025. Such a rapid loss in births is historically unprecedented, particularly considering the young population of the Philippines (median age around 26).
