A study in BMCMedEduc finds that a majority of a cohort of 175 medical students, with over 70% female, in the US plan to delay childbearing, and most female students report anxiety related to future fertility.

], no studies have reported on the anxiety medical students may experience concerning their own reproductive health, nor has medical student interest in learning about fertility for personal reasons been assessed.

Delayed childbearing, increasing age at first birth, and prominence of Assisted Reproductive Technology use in family building are predicted to continue to grow, making accessibility to information about reproductive aging critical for future physicians who are likely to delay family building.
