Pregnant with new investments

Signs have brightened that investments in assisted reproductive services by provincial governments and the private sector will likely increase in anticipation of a surge in demand, following the end of the decades-long one-child policy in October 2015.
Ending the one-child policy alone won't help boost population significantly as many reproductive-age couples are beset with infertility, experts said.
It is said women's chances to become pregnant start to decline from age 35. Similarly, a man's biological ability to father a child begins to decline from age 45.
