Market Insights and Analyst View:
Factors such as the increasing cases of infertility in men and women and growing advancements in infertility testing propel the market growth. However, lack of awareness and limitations associated with infertility testing kits impede the market growth.
In the area of reproductive ability, infertility refers to a deficiency that neither affects the individual's physical performance nor is life-threatening. However, it could affect the development of individual (both men and women), weakening their personality and causing frustration. Approximately 50 to 80 million couples experience infertility problems at least once in their reproductive lives. The situation of infertility is different in developing countries than in developed countries. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), one in six couples suffers from infertility problems. Increasing awareness about testing and changing lifestyles with increasing trends of unhealthy diets leading to infertility and gynecological disorders in men and women are contributing to the growing infertility testing market size. Furthermore, technological advancements in ovulation monitors propel the market growth. Rising consumption of smoking and tobacco will lead to an increase in infertility cases, bolstering the demand for infertility testing. In addition, increasing awareness about fertility, the growing female population affected by PCOS, rising demand for self-testing and remote monitoring testing among men and women, and innovation of new products are expected to create opportunities for the infertility testing market during the forecast period.
Growth Drivers:
Increasing Cases of Infertility in Men and Women Drive Infertility Testing Market Growth
Infertility in males is a globally prevalent issue, with percentages varying from one region to another. According to the WHO, for ~20% of infertile couples, the problem is with male partners, whereas in 30% of couples, the infertility issue is with both partners. Common factors responsible for causing infertility in men are low levels of hormones made in the pituitary gland, deficiency in semen and semen quality, sexual issues affecting the entry of semen into the vaginal track, and presence of sperm antibodies. The most common cause responsible for low sperm count is varicocele, an enlarged vein in the testicle. According to the US Department of Health and Human Services, varicocele is present in about 40% of men suffering from infertility problems. The low sperm count leads to infertility in men, which boosts the infertility testing market.
The fertility rate is steadily declining across the world, owing to several factors such as late marriages and increasing age-related infertility. According to the WHO, there were an estimated 128.5 million new chlamydia infections in adults (15–49 years) worldwide in 2020. The prevalence of chlamydia infections in people aged 15–49 years was estimated at 4.0% for women and 2.5% for men. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in the US, about 10% of women (6.1 million) aged 15 to 44 have trouble in getting or staying pregnant. Thus, the declining fertility rate propels the demand for infertility testing to determine the reasons for infertility in males and females, thereby driving the infertility testing market growth.

Report Segmentation and Scope:
The “infertility testing market analysis” has been carried out by considering the following segments: type, test kits, sample, and end user.
Segmental Analysis:
The infertility testing market, by type, is bifurcated into male infertility testing and female infertility testing. The female infertility testing segment held a larger market share in 2022. The male infertility testing segment is anticipated to register a higher CAGR of 9.2% during the forecast period. Increasing stress levels, obesity, smoking, and alcohol consumption are among the factors that contribute to male infertility. Furthermore, growing awareness regarding infertility, increasing research and development expenditure, initiatives by major infertility testing market players to launch their products, and changing lifestyles fuel the market growth for the male infertility testing segment.
By test kits, the infertility testing market is segmented into human follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) test kits, human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) hormone test kits, luteinizing hormone (LH) test kits, and others. The human follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) test kits segment held the largest market share in 2022 and is anticipated to record the highest CAGR of 9.2% during the forecast period. The follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) test kit helps in measuring the concentration of FSH hormone present in the blood. The test is often used to assess FSH levels in men and women for various reasons such as fertility problems, menopause, or problems with sexual development. FSH helps control menstrual cycle of a woman and the growth of follicles that contain eggs in the ovaries. In men, FSH regulates the production and transport of sperm. The test is used to determine the sperm count. Therefore, an FSH test kit is an important diagnostic tool for assessing reproductive problems and other conditions related to hormonal imbalances. In addition, advanced biosimilar FSH products, regulatory approvals, market access, technological advances in FSH kit production, and a growing need for effective contraceptive options are predicted to accelerate the global market growth.
By sample, the infertility testing market is segmented into blood, urine, and others. The blood segment held the largest market share in 2022. The same segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR of 9.1% during the forecast period. Infertility tests are usually blood tests to measure important hormones. Depending on the couple's situation, woman or man may require different blood tests. Blood tests that may be needed include follicular stimulating hormone (FSH), anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and others. In January 2021, health start-up Yesmom launched Asia's first at-home female fertility blood test kits to help women prioritize their reproductive health from the comfort of their homes.
By end user, the infertility testing market is categorized into hospitals & clinics, fertility centers, and homecare. The homecare segment held the largest market share in 2022 and is anticipated to register the highest CAGR of 9.0% during the forecast period. The segment is expected to grow owing to patient preference for self-monitoring of health conditions, easy access to fertility testing kits on e-commerce websites, availability of user-friendly and easy-to-use devices, and growing preference for the confidentiality of test results.
Adoption of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) and In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) to Accelerate Infertility Testing Market
Growing awareness about infertility is expected to spur the demand for the treatments of IVF and ART in the coming years. Introduction of advanced treatment of intra cytoplasmic sperm injection and rising awareness about the medicinal and surgical procedures for IVF treatment are expected to drive the infertility testing market during the forecast period. According to UCSF Health, ~ 10% of infertility issues are due to unknown causes, and the other 30% are due to problems in male and female partners.
Common procedures performed in men include intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), epididymal aspirations, vassal aspiration, testicular sperm extraction, and mapping of the failing tests. Around 75% of men with a male factor have identifiable or treatable conditions affecting their fertility. Moreover, almost all men having male factor infertility are usually treatable with ARTs. Thus, the growing adoption of ART and IVF is likely to bring new infertility testing market trends in the coming years.
