The dwarven population grows slowly due to their reproduction habits. A crucial factor in this is their gender ratio, where females are a minority.

According to Tolkien's descriptions, no more than a third of dwarves are female. This imbalance affects their societal structure and mating patterns.

Moreover, not all female dwarves choose to marry. Their decision-making process in this regard adds another layer of complexity to their reproduction.

In Tolkien's lore, dwarves are characterized by their extended lifespan. On average, they can live for approximately 250 years, which is significantly longer than humans.
