For instance, in September 2023, Merck, a prominent science and technology firm, is introducing an extensive Fertility Benefit program, providing financial assistance to employees for fertility treatments. Currently, Merck extends similar benefits to its employees in the United States, Canada, and Japan. Additionally, artificial insemination is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the growing incidence of infertility problems and continuous advancements in AI methods, including intrauterine insemination (IUI).
