In Japan, the Japanese women are having difficulty having children. The problem
revolves around those that are incapable of becoming fertile and remain with child. It is said
that in japan, women are not in wedlock and having babies because the workforce is very slim.
In Japan, the population of women having babies is rapidly declining. As well as the babies born
in 2018, the amount is rapidly in declination. The government has begun implementing
daycares, and maternity leaves in the hopes to increase women to have children an that has
not improved the fertility rates. (Koji, 2019) Because the culture in Japan is that a person works
for a company their entire lives, having a child will disrupt that and that will cause the women
to leave their careers. Also, some women have opted to have children at a later time and that
will cancel their ability to have a second child.
Invitro fertilization is very costly and the salaries of the working class, can not sustain
the cost. The cost to cover each session of the IV fertilization is 100,000 – 300,000. The country
of Japan does not recognize infertility as a disease or issue. Therefore, there are no affordable
meds to help combat the issue. If you want treatment, it must be done in a private agency that
would be very costly and you may achieve 30% of coverage from one’s insurance. (McCurry,
