Europe In-vitro Fertilization Market Size (2022 to 2027)

The size of the In-Vitro fertilization (IVF) market in Europe is expected to reach USD 2.01 billion by 2027 from USD 0.98 billion in 2022, growing at a CAGR of 15.4% during the forecast period.

The in vitro fertilization market in Europe is expected to experience steady and continuous growth, mainly in France, Germany, and the United Kingdom. This is due to supporting regulations such as the UK Human Fertilization and Embryo Authority (HFEA), which tightly regulates the operation of in vitro fertilization treatments and research in the UK. The subsidy of IVF treatments in Germany due to the falling birth rate of around 2.21 children/women is an essential factor in the growth of this market. Besides, the National Health Plan (PSN) covers approximately 50% of the total cost of treatment. It supports three cycles of in vitro fertilization, which is expected to boost the in vitro fertilization market, especially in Germany.

The main factors limiting this market growth are costs incurred and strict government regulations. A patient may need to have multiple pregnancy cycles due to the lower success rate of IVF procedures, which increases the total cost. The average cost of this procedure is approximately $ 15,125 to $ 25,300, which is often a significant barrier to adopting the technique. Besides, ethical considerations and lack of reimbursement are other challenges that are hampering the growth of the market.
