The objective was to analyze the temporal trend of the birth rate (TN) in adolescence in Brazil and regions between 2010 and 2019. This is an ecological study, of a time series, with data from the Information System on Live Births (SINASC). The tendency of TN in adolescence was observed by Prais-Winsten regression. There were 5,201,510 births to teenage mothers, the majority being among mixed races (62.8%), with 8-11 years of schooling (60.4%) and single (65.9%). The highest NT averages were observed in the North (93/1,000) and Northeast (69.6/1,000). There was a decreasing tendency for NT in adolescents aged between 10 and 14 years (VPA -2.89; 95%CI -5.24; -0.47;) in all regions, except for the Southeast. For those between 15 and 19 years old (VPA -2.84; 95%CI -4.82; -0.82;) there was a downward trend across the country. Despite the downward trend, NT is still higher in regions with the worst socioeconomic indices.
