What is another word for Total Fertility Rate?
Pronunciation: [tˈə͡ʊtə͡l fɜːtˈɪlɪti ɹˈe͡ɪt] (IPA) 
Total Fertility Rate (TFR) refers to the average number of children a woman is expected to have during her lifetime. There are several synonyms for this term, such as the fertility rate, the crude birth rate, and the general fertility rate. The fertility rate removes the impact of age on the fertility of women and thus is a more accurate measure of the reproductive behavior of the population. The crude birth rate refers to the number of live births per thousand people in a population, but it does not account for differences in age distribution. The general fertility rate considers the age-specific fertility rates of women, providing a more detailed picture of the reproductive behavior of the population.
