Today, the journey of starting a family does not look the way it did fifty years ago, and people are turning to fertility services for help. 1 in 8 couples in the United States experience pregnancy-related difficulties that fertility treatments can address.
Key market drivers include the increasing rate of obesity causing deterred ovulation in women and low sperm quality in men; decreasing fertility of women due to physiological reasons; the preference to have children after the age of 35; and the rising number of single parents of choice and LGBTQ+ individuals or couples pursuing parenthood. In the United States, 8.1% of millennials identify as LGBTQ+ and need access to fertility coverage to build their families.
The US IVF market is fragmented and served by mostly small regional clinics. There are about 480 US fertility clinics, more than 100 sperm banks, and 1,700 reproductive endocrinologists competing in this lucrative business. Furthermore, ancillary services such as egg freezing, pre-implantation genetic testing (PGT), and surrogacy options are all leading to additional choices for patients and are driving additional market opportunity, in addition to the rise of fertility benefit companies.
Despite higher efficiency and clinical effectiveness, the high cost of IVF solutions has been one of the key market restraints, especially in the low and medium income segments. However, this is expected to change in the future, driven by new business models by the vendors, and the rise of fertility benefit companies and employers offering coverage for fertility treatment of employees.
