MARKET DRIVERS:

The growing awareness of contraception worldwide is one of the key factors driving the growth of the intrauterine devices market. The awareness among people regarding contraception has improved significantly in recent years owing to the increased number of awareness campaigns, educational programs and improved access to information. As a result, the usage of IUDs has increased as these are considered as a reliable and effective contraceptive method. The growing number of initiatives from governmental organizations, non-profit organizations and healthcare organizations on family planning initiatives to address population growth and promote reproductive health contributes to the growth of the intrauterine devices market. An increasing number of public health campaigns and initiatives focussing on women’s health have also boosted the awareness of contraception and increased the adoption of intrauterine devices. The use of social media and digital platforms have also played a significant role in the increasing awareness of contraception including IUDs.

The high efficacy and convenience of intrauterine devices drive market growth. Intrauterine devices are popular for their high effectiveness and the failure rate of IUDs is less than 1%. Considering the high success rate of intrauterine devices, people who want to seek long-term and highly efficient contraception options have been increasingly adopting these devices. The long-acting nature of intrauterine devices further boosts the adoption of these devices. The average protection that IUDs offer ranges from 3 years to 10 years. The long-duration effectiveness of IUDs has been offering sustained contraceptive coverage and peace of mind to users. The convenience and ease of use of intrauterine devices compared to other contraceptive methods further drives the usage of these devices and contribute to market growth.

The growing number of initiatives from several governments aiming to promote family planning, reduce unintended pregnancies and improve women's healthcare access facilities the intrauterine devices market growth. The growing emphasis on women's health and empowerment globally, increasing investments in research and development of female contraceptives, including IUDs, rising population and increasing urbanization in developing countries, increasing demand for effective contraception methods and rising preference from women for non-hormonal contraception options such as IUDs fuel the market’s growth rate.

Continuous advancements in IUD technology, growing healthcare expenditure, improved insurance coverage for contraception, rising incidence of sexually transmitted infections such as HPV and chlamydia, increasing preference for non-invasive and minimally invasive procedures for birth control, growing population and delayed pregnancies and increasing number of collaborations between pharmaceutical companies, healthcare providers and non-profit organizations to increase the availability of IUDs in both developed and developing regions further promote the growth of the intrauterine devices market.

MARKET RESTRAINS:

Poor awareness and education regarding IUDs are one of the key factors hampering the market growth. Cultural and societal factors, cost and affordability of intrauterine devices further hinder the market growth, The accessibility and availability challenges and fear of pain and discomfort with the usage of IUDs impede the market growth. Perceived side effects, safety concerns, lack of healthcare provider training and familiarity, religious or ethical opposition, misconceptions and stigma surrounding IUDs further inhibits the growth rate of the global market. The presence of alternative contraceptive options is another significant roadblock to the market’s growth rate.

Impact of COVID-19 on the global intrauterine devices market:

The novel coronavirus originated in Wuhan, China, and has spread to almost every corner of the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared an emergency public health issue in March 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic crisis has created a negative impact on contraceptives and the sexual health market. The primary disturbance is created due to the availability of contraceptives among the people—the decrease in the manufacturing and supply quantities of birth control pills worldwide. The incompetence of millions of men and women across the country to access contraceptives during the lockdown period is foreseen to significantly impact reproductive health indicators, including maternal and infant mortality rates. The inadequate access to contraceptives over the best scenario case is to exhibit an extra 1.9 million unwanted pregnancies. Worldwide, 50% of pregnancies are unwanted. The intrauterine contraceptive devices market is expected to have significant growth in the coming years.
