According to a study taken on behalf of the Chinese Fertility Society by Liu Chi-hung, former director of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Cheng Kung University College of Medicine, currently one out of every seven married couples can not achieve pregnancy. Overall, approximately 470,000 couples face some form of disturbance in giving birth.
根據中華民國不孕症醫學會理事、前成大醫學院婦產科主任劉志鴻的估計，目前台灣每七對夫妻就有一對不孕，總計約有四十七萬對的夫婦面臨生育的困擾。
