Abstract

Globally, infertility affects millions of people. According to the World Health Organization, more than 50 million couples are affected and there are 187 million people facing infertility globally. Unfortunately, in Romania, there is no information on infertility problems and their consequences. Thus, many couples in Romania are not aware that with the postponement of pregnancy at an advanced age they will have negative consequences on future fertility. The aim of this study is to analyse whether age and education influence infertility in women. To conduct this study, we applied an online questionnaire to 162 infertile women from Romania to analyse the influence of age and education on the infertility they face. In our study it has been found that old age not only affects women's fertility, but also men's fertility. Regarding to education, it should not be seen as an impediment to the birth of children.
