They will not have achieved a pregnancy after more than 1 year of trying. Besides being a medical condition infertility is a social situation. For many couples infertility causes serious strain on their interpersonal relationships. This doctoral thesis provides information about infertility and assisted reproduction in Denmark. This country has the highest percentage of fertility treatment compared to the size of the population, and in 2007 8% of all newborn children were conceived after fertility treatment.
