In 2021, 76 children were born and 211 pregnancies were registered in Armenia as a result of the program for surmounting infertility. The minister of health, Anahit Avanesyan, stated this during a special meeting of the Standing Committee on Health Care of the National Assembly.

A total of 850 persons became beneficiaries of the program.

According to the minister, this program is continuous, and better results are expected this year.

Avanesyan reminded that last year a number of changes were made in the state program for the use of auxiliary reproductive technologies. In particular, the list of beneficiaries of the program was expanded—as it now included beneficiaries from border areas, as well as couples who lost a son during military actions. Moreover, the aforesaid couples were given the opportunity to use the state-funded services of surrogate mothers.
