More Infertility Notes from around the Globe

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

As we mentioned in a previous post, infertility doesn’t just affect couples in North America.  In fact, it’s a worldwide concern, as evidenced by these recent articles:

- From Allahbad, India:  A recent “infertility camp” was offered to about 150 couples.  During this “camp”, the partners were given free consultations about the precise fertility issues they were having. 

- From Australia: Data is now indicating that more Australian men than Australian women are infertile.  This research was conducted by a group called “Fertility First”.  Possible culprits include drug/chemical exposure, metal toxicity, alcohol/drug abuse and obesity, among others.

- From Petaling Jaya, Malaysia:  Malaysia’s fertility rates are dropping dramatically, according to a United Nations Children’s Fund report.  This has led to more couples seeking IVF treatments in the country.
