Infertility is the major problem worldwide and results in the abnormal functioning of the male or female reproductive system and can manifest as an inability to get pregnant, inability to maintain the pregnancy or inability to maintain the pregnancy to a live birth. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, data for 2011- 2013 in U.S reported that about 7.5 million women had decreased the ability to get pregnant or carry a baby to long term. Infertility can be due to both men and women or due to some unknown problems. The cause of infertility among women include problems related to ovulation, uterine problems, blocked fallopian tube, poor diet, age, and others. The cause of infertility among men is due to low or absence of sperm or sperm damage due to certain diseases. High consumption of alcohol, drug abuse, smoking, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, strong medication are some of the risk factors listed for men
Nowadays, the trend of delayed marriage is rising, and women are waiting until their mid-30s and 40s to have kids. Aging is one of the major problem decreasing women’s fertility.

Based on the test results other treatment options include artificial insemination, assisted reproductive technology (ART) and others. Several types of ART are performed such as zygote/gamete transfer, in-vitro fertilization, intracytoplasmic sperm injection and others.
According to National Vital Statistics report of United States, in 2013 fertility rate was 62 births per 1000 women, which was down by 1% from 2012.
