IVF Culture Media Market size was valued at USD 1.97 Billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 2.81 Billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 9.4% from 2026 to 2032.
IVF Culture Media Market Drivers
Growing Incidence of Infertility Globally: The increasing frequency of infertility worldwide is a major driver of the IVF culture media market. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that infertility affects approximately 17.5% of the adult population worldwide or roughly one in every six adults of reproductive age. The growing number of couples seeking assisted reproductive technologies has directly impacted the demand for high-quality IVF culture media required for effective embryo development and implantation.
Increasing Maternal Age and Delayed Pregnancy Trends: The global trend of delaying childbirth has greatly enhanced the IVF culture media market. According to data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the birth rate for women aged 40-44 climbed by 67% between 2000 and 2020, while the average age of first-time mothers increased from 24.9 in 2000 to 27.1 in 2021. As fertility naturally declines with age, the growing number of women seeking pregnancy at advanced maternal ages has resulted in a significant increase in the use of IVF procedures that require specialized culture media.
Technological Advancements in IVF Procedures: Continuous innovation in IVF procedures and culture media formulations is propelling the market forward. According to the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE), clinical pregnancy rates per aspiration utilizing advanced culture media techniques have increased from roughly 29% in 2010 to over 39% in 2020. The development of sequential and single-step culture media systems has transformed embryo cultivation, prompting healthcare facilities around the world to implement these modern technologies to increase success rates.
In 2018, the median age of mothers at the birth of their first child in New Zealand was 30.5 years, significantly older than the average age in 1980. The median age of at childbirth in the country has increased over the past few decades, reflecting the changing societal attitudes across different generations in the country.

BackgroundThere has been increasing interest in measuring under-five mortality as a health indicator and as a critical measure of human development. In countries with complete vital registration systems that capture all births and deaths, under-five mortality can be directly calculated. In the absence of a complete vital registration system, however, child mortality must be estimated using surveys that ask women to report the births and deaths of their children. Two survey methods exist for capturing this information: summary birth histories and complete birth histories. A summary birth history requires a minimum of only two questions: how many live births has each mother had and how many of them have survived. Indirect methods are then applied using the information from these two questions and the age of the mother to estimate under-five mortality going back in time prior to the survey. Estimates generated from complete birth histories are viewed as the most accurate when surveys are required to estimate under-five mortality, especially for the most recent time periods. However, it is much more costly and labor intensive to collect these detailed data, especially for the purpose of generating small area estimates. As a result, there is a demand for improvement of the methods employing summary birth history data to produce more accurate as well as subnational estimates of child mortality.Methods and FindingsWe used data from 166 Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) to develop new empirically based methods of estimating under-five mortality using children ever born and children dead data. We then validated them using both in- and out-of-sample analyses. We developed a range of methods on the basis of three dimensions of the problem: (1) approximating the average length of exposure to mortality from a mother's set of children using either maternal age or time since first birth; (2) using cohort and period measures of the fraction of children ever born that are dead; and (3) capturing country and regional variation in the age pattern of fertility and mortality. We focused on improving estimates in the most recent time periods prior to a survey where the traditional indirect methods fail. In addition, all of our methods incorporated uncertainty. Validated against under-five estimates generated from complete birth histories, our methods outperformed the standard indirect method by an average of 43.7% (95% confidence interval [CI] 41.2–45.2). In the 5 y prior to the survey, the new methods resulted in a 53.3% (95% CI 51.3–55.2) improvement. To illustrate the value of this method for local area estimation, we applied our new methods to an analysis of summary birth histories in the 1990, 2000, and 2005 Mexican censuses, generating subnational estimates of under-five mortality for each of 233 jurisdictions.ConclusionsThe new methods significantly improve the estimation of under-five mortality using summary birth history data. In areas without vital registration data, summary birth histories can provide accurate estimates of child mortality. Because only two questions are required of a female respondent to generate these data, they can easily be included in existing survey programs as well as routine censuses of the population. With the wider application of these methods to census data, countries now have the means to generate estimates for subnational areas and population subgroups, important for measuring and addressing health inequalities and developing local policy to improve child survival.Please see later in the article for the Editors' Summary

Bolivia BO: Vitamin A Supplementation Coverage Rate: % of Children Aged 6-59 Months data was reported at 31.000 % in 2020. This records a decrease from the previous number of 37.000 % for 2019. Bolivia BO: Vitamin A Supplementation Coverage Rate: % of Children Aged 6-59 Months data is updated yearly, averaging 39.500 % from Dec 2000 (Median) to 2020, with 18 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 54.000 % in 2018 and a record low of 21.000 % in 2011. Bolivia BO: Vitamin A Supplementation Coverage Rate: % of Children Aged 6-59 Months data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Bolivia – Table BO.World Bank.WDI: Social: Health Statistics. Vitamin A supplementation refers to the percentage of children ages 6-59 months old who received at least two doses of vitamin A in the previous year.;UNICEF global databases, based on administrative reports from countries (link: https://data.unicef.org/topic/nutrition/vitamin-a-deficiency/);Weighted average;Vitamin A is essential for optimal functioning of the immune system. Vitamin A deficiency, a leading cause of blindness, also causes a greater risk of dying from a range of childhood ailments such as measles, malaria, and diarrhea. In low- and middle-income countries, where vitamin A is consumed largely in fruits and vegetables, daily per capita intake is often insufficient to meet dietary requirements. Providing young children with two high-dose vitamin A capsules a year is a safe, cost-effective, efficient strategy for eliminating vitamin A deficiency and improving child survival. Giving vitamin A to new breastfeeding mothers helps protect their children during the first few months of life. Food fortification with vitamin A is being introduced in many developing countries.
