Market Overview
The World Health Organization (WHO) has estimated that around 48.5 million couples worldwide were infertile in 2010. Infertility is defined as the inability of a couple to conceive after having regular unprotected sex. Physiological dysfunction, anatomical or genetic disorder, sexually transmitted diseases (STD)s, and endocrinological or immunological problems are some of the health issues that increase the risk of infertility. Increasing incidence of infertility that affects a significant proportion of humanity has raised a global public health concern. According to Demographic and Health Surveys, one in every four couples in the developing countries of the world is found to be affected by infertility. Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea, China, and Hong Kong SAR, among others, represent some of the major countries of Asia-Pacific suffering from ultra-low fertility rates. Increasing incidence of infertility owing to lifestyle changes (mainly due to the growth in the median age of first-time motherhood) is the most prominent factor driving the growth of Asia-Pacific IVF market. Apart from this, the rising rate of surrogacy in developing countries and various industrial revolutions taking place in the healthcare domain also act as drivers propelling the growth of the IVF market.
In-vitro fertilization, popularly referred to as IVF, is a form of assisted reproductive technology that assists in treating infertility. It refers to a cutting-edge procedure in which an egg is combined with sperm outside the body, in vitro (in glass). It involves a complex series of procedure involving monitoring and simulating a woman's ovulatory process, removing an ovum or ova from the woman's ovaries, and fertilization of ovum with sperm in the laboratory, followed by embryo culture and its subsequent implantation in the same or another woman's uterus, with the intention of establishing a successful pregnancy. The in-vitro fertilization market consists of all the products used in conducting the procedure including devices, reagents, and pharmaceuticals. The market also takes into account the services offered in different regions around the globe.
The purpose of the study is to gain a holistic view of the Asia-Pacific IVF market in terms of various factors influencing it such as recent trends and technological advancements of the market. The scope of this report is centered upon conducting a detailed study of the devices, reagents, and pharmaceuticals allied with the IVF market, which includes both commercialized products as well as products that are in the pipeline. The Asia-Pacific IVF market report also includes the services market for in-vitro fertilization in different countries of the region. The Asia-Pacific IVF market is segmented into four different parts: by products, by end-user, by procedure, and by country. The global market value was estimated using these three different approaches and was validated with one another. These segments are further segmented into several sub-segments to ease market estimation.
The Asia-Pacific IVF market is valued at $6.99 billion in 2018, and is expected to witness a CAGR of 10.13% during the forecast period between 2019 and 2029.
