The NCR recorded 369 cases of babies born to mothers aged 10 years to 14 years in 2018, but the figure went down by 6.5 percent to 345 registered cases in 2019.
Cases involving girls aged 15 years to 19 years also decreased by 4.8 percent from 20,613 in 2018 to 19,614 in 2019.
“Although (a) declining trend was observed in both age brackets, the case of a 10-year-old getting pregnant has sounded the alarm for all local government units to harmonize their efforts for stronger and better initiatives on adolescent reproductive health,” Commission on Population and Development (Popcom) – NCR Director Lydio Español Jr. said on Tuesday.

Trade and Industry Secretary Ramon M. Lopez revealed this during the press briefing of Presidential spokesman Harry Roque in Malacañang on Tuesday.
Lopez said he suggested a lower price ceiling on imported pork sold in supermarkets and grocery stores.
He explained that the current price ceiling on pork and chicken are applicable mostly in wet markets. These pork and chicken supply in the wet markets are also mostly sourced from local hog and poultry raisers. But the imported pork products are largely sold in supermarkets and groceries.
