The fertility treatments market is expected to grow from $22.77 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 8.4%. The growth in the median age of first-time motherhood combined with change in lifestyle increased the difficulty of conceiving, increasing the demand for fertility treatment. The median age of first-time motherhood has increased all over the globe due to late marriages, contraceptive techniques, and an increase in the number of women who prioritize their careers over starting a family. In 2020, the average age of first-time mothers in America has risen from 21 to 26. Women in other developed countries are also deferring, with the typical first birth occurring at the age of 31 for new mothers. In this scenario, a growing number of women are opting for IVF treatments, which is expected to drive this market. The high cost and low success rate of In vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment is a major factor that limits the growth of the fertility treatments market. In vitro fertilization is a fertilization process in which an egg is fertilized with sperm outside the body, in vitro. In vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment costs differ in many countries due to the lack of refund policies. Moreover, insurance companies usually do not cover infertility treatments. According to the American society of reproductive medicine, in the USA, the average cost of an IVF cycle is $12,400 and the average cost of an IVF cycle using fresh embryos is $8,158 with a median cost at $7,500. The rate of success of IVF treatments is only 28% to 35%, which decreases with the increase in woman's age. For example, for women, the success rate is 32.2% under 35 and 1.9% for women aged over 44. Thus, the high cost and low success rate of IVF treatment restrict the growth of the fertility treatment market. Development of new techniques to treat infertility using a human’s body is a key trend in the fertility treatments market. INVOcell is an IVF alternative that uses the woman’s body to support fertilization, thus eliminating the cost of a laboratory incubator. The INVOcell device is placed with the eggs and sperm in the vaginal cavity, allowing for the stability of the natural environment, pH, and gas to help in fertilization. INVOcell, which is made in Medford, Massachusetts by INVO Bioscience, costs around $6,800 including medication. Although IVF generated more quality embryos, the birth rates between IVF and INVOcell are similar. According to the journal of assisted reproduction and genetics, 12 out of 20 women gave birth to 15 babies in IVF including three sets of twins and 11 out of 20 women gave birth to 16 babies in INVOcell group including five sets of twins.

The rising infertility rate contributed to the growth of the in vitro fertilization (IVF) services market. Infertility is known as the inability to conceive within 12 months. According to the US Department of Health and Human Services, around 12 to 13 couples in 100 have a problem in conceiving. Moreover, according to the Indian Journal of Community Medicine, 15 to 20 million infertility cases are in India alone. The rising infertility rate made people resort to IVF services contributing to the growth of the market. The high cost of IVF services limits the in-vitro fertilization (IVF) services market. For instance, the cost of a basic IVF package ranges from $4,700 to $20,000, and the average price in the USA is around $12,000. The total cost of a single IVF cycle can range between $8,000 to $30,000. According to FertilityIQ, the cost of IVF services was around $22,000. In emerging economies like India, the cost of IVF services ranges from INR 70,000 to INR 300,000. The high cost of IVF services makes it unavailable to low- and middle-income populations negatively affecting the IVF services' market growth. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is the latest technique increasingly used for improving IVF success rate in patients with recurrent implantation failures. PRP is used alongside fertility treatments like IVF to improve egg quality, uterine lining thickness and endometrial receptivity, and the treatment is primarily for recurrent implantation failure over multiple IVF cycles. According to an article published by the Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics, women treated with PRP experienced a significant improvement in Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH), and Antral Follicle Count (AFC) and help improve fertility.

Assisted reproductive technology is based on the surgical removal of eggs from women’s ovaries and then fusing them with men’s sperm in the laboratory to create embryos. These embryos are then inserted back into the woman’s body. ART uses donor eggs, donor sperm, or previously stored frozen embryos. Assisted reproductive technology (ART) is used for the treatment of infertility in either eggs or embryos. The main types of assisted reproductive technology are in-vitro fertilization (IVF), artificial insemination (AI-IUI), frozen embryo replacement (FER), and others. In-vitro fertilisation (IVF) is a complicated operation that involves collecting eggs and fertilising them with sperm in a lab to create embryos. These embryos are subsequently implanted into women's reproductive organs.

The genito-urinary drugs market is expected to reach $63.83 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 10.5%. The aging population profile of most countries contributed to the growth of the gastrointestinal drugs market. The increase in patient pool due to rising geriatric population globally, contributed significantly to the growth of the market during the historic period. According to the WHO, by 2030, one in every six people on the planet will be 60 or older. The proportion of the population aged 60 and up will rise from 1 billion in 2020 to 2.2 billion by 2050. This rise in the geriatric population increased the demand for medical care and drove the healthcare expenditure. This has led to increased demand for pharmaceuticals products, significantly impacting market growth during this period. Regulatory agencies and federal governments adopted stringent regulations and took a tough stance on drug pricing by pharmaceutical companies during the historic period. Pharmaceutical companies faced criticism from politicians, patients and physicians over high pricing of some medicines and drugs. Moreover, companies had to sell drugs and medicines at subsidized rates to government hospitals, doctors and clinics, further effecting companies’ revenues. This led to drug manufacturing companies operating on a reduced profit margin, which negatively impacted the attractiveness of the genito-urinary drugs industry in the historic period. Pharmaceutical companies are investing in development of new class drugs for treating overactive bladders (OAB). Earlier anti-muscarinic agents have been used for the treatment of OAB. Going forward, the market is expected to be driven by a new class of drug known as beta-3 adrenergic agonists that has been increasingly used to treat OAB. Beta-3 adrenergic agonists are drugs which cause the bladder muscles to relax without causing side effects such as dry mouth.
