Abstract
To investigate the stability situation of population for male of Bangladesh, total males of 1961, 1974, 1981, 1991 and latest 2001 censuses, intercensal growth rates, age specific fertility rates (ASFRs) and stationary population for male at the middle points of various intercensal periods have been used to estimate the intrinsic growth rates, birth rates, death rates and stable population. The estimated intrinsic birth rates and death rates give an idea about the nature of population transition. The male stable population estimated at the mean points of various intercensal periods shows more or less identical age structure. These results lead to the decision of identical male stable population in spite of changing fertility and mortality situations in Bangladesh.
