Infertility burden across states – an overview
In India, primary infertility is becoming more common over time. The country's infertility problem requires focused interventions and legislative measures, as indicated by several survey findings.
India's mean range for the state-level prevalence of infertility (per thousand women) is 18.7, with variations ranging from 6.9 to 49.4. The southern states of the nation still have the greatest prevalence rates; Karnataka is among the top states with a rate of 27.6.
For policymakers and healthcare providers to effectively create and execute preventative and management programs, they must first acknowledge the significant burden and regional differences. Unfortunately, not much has changed in terms of tackling this urgent health issue.
Need of Level 2 ART Clinics:
Private players like Autonomous Institutions, teaching Hospitals, Corporate Hospital chains, and Leading infertility specialists have taken advantage of this opportunity in terms of providing treatment to the patients on one hand and training the clinicians who form part of the minimum staff requirements for ART centers on the other hand.
As the trend in infertility incidence continues to rise, the pie becomes bigger for the players to encash on. One can see the mushrooming of ART centers in top cities in India, classical shift is well-known predominantly birthing centres adding fertility departments at their hospitals. This is bound to impact the tier 2 cities too, to catch up in terms of bringing in locally accessible infertility treatments.
Need for Level 2 ART staff - Gynaecologists
Though the training centers have not grown on the same scale it is important to note few big names have ventured into this space.
The reasons are two-fold:
One, the merit seats [McH Reproductive Medicine, Fellowship in Reproductive Medicine] available for this super specialty IVF training are very few at Government institutions and Private Academic Hospitals. Secondly, Corporate Hospital chains are seeing this as a commercial opportunity to set up training academies at their hospitals due to their Pan India presence.
Now comes the critical question of who is the best and most reputed training academies. To each, their own but only a handful have long-standing proven track records like Medline Academics! Medline Academics erstwhile known as IIRRH was one of the pioneers in teaching excellence since the 1990s under the visionary of Dr Kamini Rao.
Being down south Karnataka state witnesses more infertility cases and it is obvious that the capital city Bangalore is the hub of infertility centres and the seat of learning too! Though there are plenty of ART centres in the neighbouring states surprisingly there are few training centres. Hence Bangalore continues to attract aspiring OBGs from neighbouring states of TN, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana; and Central, North, and East regions to a certain extent.
Need for IVF training – the need of hour!
Experience over the years has proven that success rates are one of the foremost parameters in choosing IVF treatment clinicians or centers. Hence choosing the best training centre is an informed decision that the clinician has to make amongst the plethora of choices.
There are plenty of IVF training courses in Bangalore, offered by universities and institutions alike. Fellowship in Reproductive Medicine is one of the sought-after courses. Doing it with a university has more weightage than that from an Institution, as it is a degree and has Pan India validity.
The IVF training course eligibility is MS/MD or DGO with at least 3 years of experience in a relevant field. International candidates should submit an equivalent qualification by their Medical council.

Our institution is proud to have the greatest models, which are by worldwide standards: PickUpSIM for OPUs and VirtaMed for embryo transfer and IUIs. Clinicians' experience would be enhanced and brought closer to real-world situations with this practical training and practice.
The final component of the course, the clinical attachment, is now available. To gain insight into the IVF treatment process, the candidates will be stationed at connected ART centers. Inquiries into medical history, counselling, evaluations, scans, stimulation regimens, egg retrievals, and embryo transfers would all fall under this category. A log book will be used to record the 180 hours that must be clocked.
