Infertility treatment during COVID-19 pandemic

 

Background

COVID19 is a global crisis that has significantly affected the field of infertility and IVF practice. As a result, a variety of public health responses have been implemented depending on location and perceived level of threat. It is, therefore, very pertinent for us to conduct an international survey to ascertain the impact on IVF practices in different regions of the world. Our purpose is to ascertain similarities and differences in the regional response to the COVID-19 pandemic among infertility practices as well as trends in practice changes over time. Because the pandemic has arisen in different countries at different times, and the number of IVF cycles done varies significantly by country, information based on the region will be elicited for some countries.
