This monograph compiles significant papers addressing the medical, societal, and demographic implications of fertility, contributing meaningfully to the European discourse on the subject. The alarmingly low fertility rates in several EU Member States raise public concern. While increasing fertility alone won't halt demographic aging, it can help slow current trends. Understanding the factors behind Europe's low fertility is crucial. The challenge of balancing private life with professional commitments often leads women to delay family planning or have fewer children than they desire. Many couples face fertility issues as they age, and involuntary infertility poses serious medical challenges, adversely affecting the wellbeing of those involved and impacting demographic trends. Policies encouraging earlier childbearing are necessary, as prevention is the most effective approach to address involuntary infertility. However, the trend of having children later in life is likely to persist. Thus, it is vital to examine the access to and quality of assisted reproductive technologies.
