In recent years, fertility developments have led to the announcement of population policies. The purpose of this study is to investigate the fertility trend in the censuses of the last three periods based on the Parity progression ratios. Parity progression ratios is actually the proportion of women of a given parity who go to have another child. The findings show that the PPR in young women in the age group of 20 to 35 years is lower than that of women in the age group of 35 to 49 years. Women's fertility reaches a significant percentage when they reach the reproductive age. The first and second ranks are significant, it respects the limit of succession, but it decreases in the fifth ranks and later, and in fact, this is the reason for the decrease in childbearing. As a result, the fertility of married women is also in an acceptable situation, but demographic policies based on strengthening the economic and welfare infrastructure will increase marriage, which will ultimately boost childbearing.
