For instance, in August 2015, a treatment method developed by Ovascience’s named as AUGMENT was reported to rejuvenate the eggs of aging women’s and benefit the poor quality eggs. Another technology named as Vitrification allows direct freezing of gametes with the application of liquid nitrogen and hence, are responsible for increased demand for frozen eggs for further application.

According to the WHO, the rate of fertility per woman has reduced from five in 1960 to 2.5 in 2012. The declining rates of fertility and increasing stress levels are causing physiological problems which have induced a demand for ART procedures, hence, escalating the market growth.

Market Segment:

Based on the technology devised for assisted reproductive health, the market is segmented into in vitro fertilization, artificial insemination, surrogacy and others.

The technique artificial insemination is further segmented into intrauterine insemination (IUI) and intracervical insemination (ICI). In-vitro fertilization held the major share in terms of revenue is conducted by utilizing fresh sperm/egg to improve success rates. However, this method was reported to lead to multiple births at times and hence, was rendered disadvantageous. Also, Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) was introduced for male infertility, wherein single potent sperm is injected into the egg aiding to bring forth more customers thereby leading to market growth.

In terms of procedure, the market is further bifurcated into Frozen Donor, Frozen Non Donor, Fresh Donor, Fresh Non Donor and Embryo Banking. Fresh non donor method is considered as the most advantageous method, since the procedure is relatively less invasive, less expensive and the recipient does not have to go through drug stimulation process. Furthermore, various reimbursement policies have encouraged people to store or donate their gametes. The IVF refund plan designed by Chicago’s Advanced Fertility Center allows 100% refund up to four cycles with fresh embryos. On the basis of end user, assisted reproductive technology market has been segmented into fertility clinics, hospitals and others.
