Background: The widespread interest in male reproductive health (MRH), fueled by emerging evidence, such as the global decline in sperm counts, has intensified concerns about the status of MRH. Consequently, there is a pressing requirement for a strategic, systematic approach to identifying critical questions, collecting pertinent information, and utilizing these data to develop evidence-based strategies. The methods for addressing these questions and the pathways toward their answers will inevitably vary based on the variations in cultural, geopolitical, and health-related contexts.

Globally, fertility awareness efforts include well-established risk factors for fertility problems. Risks disproportionately affecting women in the Global South, however, are neglected. To address this gap, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analyses of relevant risk factors to examine the association between risk factors and fertility problems.

Kenya has made great strides in improving access to family planning services. However, amid this considerable progress, regional variation has been noted which begs the need for a clearer understanding of the the patterns and determinants that drive these inconsistencies.

Article Synopsis
- Family-planning policies traditionally focused on contraceptives to control population growth, but many countries now experience fertility rates below replacement level, leading to predicted population declines by 2100.
- In response to these declining population trends, countries are exploring child-friendly policies, including financial incentives and limited funding for fertility treatments, to encourage family growth.
- The IFFS consensus document highlights disparities in access to fertility care and emphasizes the need for a broader understanding of family building, encompassing various methods like natural conception, ART, surrogacy, and adoption.
