Men and women in Japan are getting married increasingly later than previous generations. In 2023, the average age of women who marry for the first time was about **** years, while men were on average **** years old when they first got married. Social integration of women The rising age at first marriage was partly explained by a common theory that holds the growing number of “parasite singles” accountable for the trend. The term refers to young working people aged between 28 and 40 years who decide to keep living comfortably in their parents' homes to save money. An alternative explanation is the more active participation of Japanese women in society. Increasingly more women in Japan obtain higher education degrees and focus on their career paths. With a rising income, they are financially less dependent, and marriage is no longer essential to afford the life they pursue. Delayed family planning The overall number of newly registered marriages has also declined in the past decade. The reported number of marriages was around ******* in 2023, representing the sixth consecutive years below *******. These developments concerning marriages have also impacted the mean age of childbearing, which has risen considerably since the *****.

In 2023, there were around *** live births per 1,000 inhabitants in Japan, down from about *** in the previous year. The total number of live births in the nation amounted to approximately ******* in 2023. Japan’s super aging society Directly after the end of WWII, the live birth rate in Japan was over ** per 1,000 of population. The rate has constantly dropped in the last decades after the second baby boom (between 1971 and 1974). Meanwhile, the life expectancy of the Japanese people has increased, reaching about **** years for women and **** years for men in 2022. Due to the combination of both factors, Japan has developed into one of the most rapidly aging societies in the world. Almost ** percent of Japan’s population is currently aged 65 years and older, falling into the “super-aged nation” defined by international institutions and organizations. Decreasing number of marriages In Japan, the number of births outside of marriage is small. The Japanese government, therefore, considers the decreasing number of marriages as the driving factor behind the country’s fertility decline. As of 2023, the number of marriages per 1,000 Japanese citizens was ***, less than half compared to that in the early *****. The average age of first marriage has also risen for both men and women.

Japan Contraceptive Devices Market size was valued at USD 1.25 Billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 1.78 Billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2026 to 2032.
Key Market Drivers
Increasing Late Marriage Trends and Career-Focused Lifestyle: The rising trend of late marriages in Japan, with the average age of first marriage reaching 31.0 years for men and 29.4 years for women in 2020—a nearly three-year increase since the 1990s, according to the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare—reflects a career-focused lifestyle among working professionals, particularly in urban areas. This shift increases demand for dependable contraceptive devices as people prioritize their professions and personal ambitions over raising kids, needing effective family planning methods to avoid unwanted pregnancies during their peak working years.
Rising Awareness of Sexual Health Among Youth: Rising sexual health awareness among Japan’s youth has resulted in increased adoption of modern contraceptive methods, with the percentage of sexually active young adults (aged 18-34) using such methods increasing from 54.3% in 2010 to 62.1% in 2021, according to the National Institute of Population and Social Security Research.

Men and women in Japan are getting married increasingly later than previous generations. In 2023, the average age of women who marry for the first time was about **** years, while men were on average **** years old when they first got married. Social integration of women The rising age at first marriage was partly explained by a common theory that holds the growing number of “parasite singles” accountable for the trend. The term refers to young working people aged between 28 and 40 years who decide to keep living comfortably in their parents' homes to save money. An alternative explanation is the more active participation of Japanese women in society. Increasingly more women in Japan obtain higher education degrees and focus on their career paths. With a rising income, they are financially less dependent, and marriage is no longer essential to afford the life they pursue. Delayed family planning The overall number of newly registered marriages has also declined in the past decade. The reported number of marriages was around ******* in 2023, representing the sixth consecutive years below *******. These developments concerning marriages have also impacted the mean age of childbearing, which has risen considerably since the *****.
