Study also finds that number of female couples receiving IVF or DI treatment doubled between 2012 and 2022
The number of single women in the UK undergoing fertility treatment to start a family has more than trebled in a decade, a report has revealed.
In total, 4,800 women without a partner had in vitro fertilisation (IVF) or donor insemination (DI) treatment in 2022. This represents a 243% increase from the 1,400 single women who had fertility treatment in 2012, according to the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA).
