“…The finding of this study is higher than that of a study performed in China in which the prevalence of infertility was 22.1% [ 33 ]. It is also higher than a similar study done in Cameroon in which the prevalence of infertility was 19.2% [ 34 ], also higher than a study done in Burkina Faso[ 35 ]. However, the finding of this study is much lower than the finding of a study done in Central Africa with a prevalence of 61% secondary infertility.…”

Introduction The World Health Organization estimated that approximately 48 million couples and 186 million people are infertile worldwide. Although the problem of infertility is increasing worldwide, as well as in Ethiopia, there are limited studies done. Therefore, this study aims to determine the magnitude of infertility and the major risk factors in three governmental hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Method An institutional-based cross-sectional study design was used to conduct the study. The participants were selected by using a systematic random sampling technique. Data were collected through an interview using a structured questionnaire. The data were entered into Epi Data version 3.1 and exported to SPSS version 25 for analysis. Logistic regression was used to identify the predictor variables. Statistical significance was considered at a P < 0.05 with an adjusted odds ratio calculated at 95% CI. Result The overall prevalence of infertility was 27.6% (95%CI = 23.2, 32.0). Of these, 14.4% had primary infertility, and 13.2% had secondary infertility. Those whose duration of marriage was less than 60 months [AOR = 3.85; 95%CI 1.39, 10.64], had a history of fallopian tube obstructions [AOR = 8.27; 95%CI 2.36, 28.91], had irregular frequency of coitus [AOR = 37.4; 95%CI 11.29, 124.114], had more than one sex partner [AOR = 3.51; 95%CI 1.64, 7.54], had an abortion greater than 3 times [AOR = 6.89; 95%CI 1.28, 37.09], and had partners who currently consumed alcohol [AOR = 1.31; 95%CI 1.11, 1.86] were more likely to be infertile than their counterparts. Conclusion According to the results of this study, the prevalence of infertility was high compared to the global estimate of the World Health Organization. The government, health care providers, and researchers should emphasize developing appropriate strategies, research, education, and awareness creation of infertility and its potential causes.

“…Two studies in India reported infertility rate of 12.6% and 14.2% respectively (14,15). Another study conducted in Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso); the medically-diagnosed infertility prevalence was 2.9% (16). Thus, the prevalence of infertility varies between countries and in between the different parts of the same country; in addition, the large variation in inclusion criteria between different studies making comparison difficult.…”
