Late marriages, career reasons for infertility in UAE?
The Dubai Health Authority (DHA) found a rise in infertility rates, as the latest findings revealed the issue is faced by approximately 50 per cent of women in the UAE.
Dr Chawla pointed out that infertility rates in the UAE are relatively higher than other parts of the world, as one in every five couples in the country face fertility issues.
Last year, there were 5,975 cases of infertile women seeking treatment in Dubai, and DHA statistics also revealed that women seeking treatment in the emirate alone could double to 9,139 cases by 2030.
Dr Chawla noted that a woman’s age is crucial when it comes to having a healthy and successful pregnancy. After the age of 35, the chances of a successful conception fall at a dramatic rate.
