Infertility is a significant global health challenge impacting millions of families worldwide. Utilizing data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 study, a Chinese-led study examined global, regional, and national infertility prevalence and years lived with disability (YLDs) from 1990 to 2021.
