Infertility is a global health issue as its affects both men and women. Infertility in females occur due to increasing age, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), obesity, and multiple miscarriages whereas in males infertility occur due to erectile dysfunction, low sperm count, abnormal sperms, etc. Increasing prevalence of infertility is expected to propel demand for the infertility drugs. According to World Health Organization (WHO) 2012 report, infertility affects one out of four couples in emerging economies. Many researchers are working towards finding an efficient treatment for the infertility. For instance, in 2018 at Ben-Gurion University (BGU), Israel researchers were developing a new, single-dose infertility treatment based on a new compound. The new treatment, developed by the BGU researchers, stimulates the expression of the telomerase and re-elongates the telomeres, protecting the cells from damage.
The global infertility drugs market size was valued at US$ 3.8 billion in 2017, and is expected to witness a CAGR of 5.8% over the forecast period (2019 – 2026).

Increasing Research & Development for More Effective Treatment with Lesser Side-Effects to Reduce Infertility is expected to Drive Growth of the Infertility Drugs Market
The infertility drugs market size is expected to witness significant growth, owing to the rising research and developmental studies for more effective treatment to achieve pregnancy and live births. For instance, in 2014, a team of researchers at National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) found that women treated with Letrozole have high rates of ovulation and live births than women treated with the standard drug, Clomiphene. Furthermore, among women who received Letrozole, 27.5% of them eventually had a live birth and women who received clomiphene, only 19.1% them experienced a live birth. The cumulative ovulation rate was higher for the Letrozole group, with ovulation occurring 61.7% of the time, and the women in the clomiphene group ovulated 48.3% of the time.
Moreover, rising prevalence of lifestyle disorders and unhealthy diet such as obesity, stress, smoking, diabetes, Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and etc. also leads to infertility, eventually rising demand for infertility drugs. According to a study published in National Center for Biotechnology and Information (NCBI) 2015 report, smoking was associated with decrease in sperm density by 15.3%, total sperm counts by 17.5%, and total motile sperm by 16.6% compared with nonsmokers in China.
Infertility Drugs Market – Restraints
The infertility drugs market growth is hindered by the side effects shown by the drugs including headache, nausea, upper respiratory tract infection, abdominal tenderness, sinus congestion, mood swings, acne, breast tenderness, weight gain, pelvic discomfort, abnormal bleeding or spotting, vomiting, injection site pain, redness, dizziness and Ovarian Hyper-Stimulation Syndrome (OHSS). According to a study published in NCBI, in 2016, up to 10% to 20% of women who consume infertility drugs can develop a mild form of OHSS, which will usually resolve on its own. Severe cases of OHSS occurs in less than one percent of patients in the U.S.

Asia Pacific infertility drugs market size is expected to foresee a rapid growth in the market, owing to rise in research and development activities for better reproductive health. For instance, in 2018, Ferring Pharmaceuticals and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) announced a long-term collaboration to advance basic and translational research in reproductive medicine through the development of novel product candidates and therapeutic strategies.
