The Lancet Publishes IFFS Commentary on Global Fertility Challenges – IFFS

International Federation of Fertility Societies (IFFS) shared a post on LinkedIn:

“The Lancet Obstetrics, Gynaecology, and Women’s Health published our insight commentary entitled ‘expanding fertility awareness and choices’.

The following issues are highlighted:

  • fertility rates are falling all over the world
  • more and more young adults decide not to have children
  • we have insufficient knowledge about what factors rule reproductive choices
  • there seems a distinct differences between desired and realized fertility
  • 1 in 6 couples suffer from hashtag#infertility
  • access to fertility care is very low in many countries throughout the globe
  • an increasing demand exists for fertility care amongst single women (and men) and members of the LGBTQ+ community.

We recommend that societies should more actively support reproductive choices of young adults through education, infertility prevention, reimbursement of fertility care and reforms to support families.
