According to All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), 10-15 percent of the nation’s population exhibit complications related to fertility. For a country with a 1.3 billion population, that would account for almost one in seven people.
In India, the conversation about infertility as a condition, in both men and women, has found acceptance only in the recent past. Infertility is defined as the inability of a couple to conceive after one year of unprotected sex, or due to some other proven medical condition preventing the same. According to All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), 10-15 percent of the nation’s population exhibit complications related to fertility. For a country with a 1.3 billion population, that would account for almost one in seven people.
Despite advancements in fertility treatments, India is still far behind in meeting rising demand. Infertility has become a personal and public health issue in India, with a double-digit increase. Aside from the social stigma, infertility causes a lot of financial and emotional stress for couples. As a dangerous public health issue, all stakeholders—patients, professionals, legislators, and health insurers—must pay close attention.

Nutraceuticals & Infertility

who-we-are

According to the Indian Society of Assisted Reproduction (ISAR), roughly 10-14 percent of Indian couples are now experiencing infertility. Infertility is more prevalent in urban regions than in rural places. One out of every six couples in urban areas is affected. In India, approximately 27.5 million couples actively attempting to conceive suffer from infertility, according to a study by Med Tech Company.

  • In terms of knowledge and adoption of methods such as IVF, India has achieved significant development in the field of reproductive treatment. Infertile couples now have the option of IVF treatment, which involves combining eggs and sperm and fertilizing them in vitro or outside the body; however, only 1% of infertile couples seek fertility treatment.
  • Infertility in India is commonly acknowledged to be caused by a modern lifestyle, fast urbanization, hormonal changes (particularly in prolactin levels), job pressures, stress, vehicular pollution, and deferring parenting. Infertility is caused by lifestyle illnesses like as obesity and diabetes. Sexually transmitted infections, polycystic ovarian syndrome, fibroids, and genital tuberculosis are also new concerns for women.
  • Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) have become more common because of more unprotected intercourse, as well as extensive use of emergency contraception and surgical abortions, both of which can result in serious infections that can lead to infertility. According to the NCBI, in India, the average age of menopause is 47 years, compared to 52 years in Western countries. Environmental pollutants are also to blame for the dramatic drop in fertility.
  • It is a fallacy to believe that the problem of infertility is gender-based. In truth, both male and female couples may share equal blame for the failure to conceive. Only 30% of Indian males have normal sperm qualities, causing women to have difficulty conceiving. Couples tend to avoid tests, and we feel that seeing an infertility specialist in person can help manage a huge majority of cases with easy, conventional therapies.
  • Only true situations requiring advanced fertility therapies such as IVF, egg donation, or surrogacy should be referred. To make both genders aware of the issue, awareness and sensitization are essential. Fertility preservation, or the preservation of sperm and eggs for future use, has been made possible because of medical discoveries in reproductive health. Stem cell therapy is also on the verge of discovering new ways to rejuvenate the eggs and sperms, a process known as "fertility rejuvenation."
