Reproductive medicine is a field in India which has a history of a little over 40 years. The advances made over the last 40 years in this field have contributed significantly to the introduction of new techniques and improved patient outcomes. The advances in science and the need for infertility specialists has driven the demand for training in this speciality over the last 20 years.
As this is a speciality which requires inputs across multiple disciplines and a mix of clinical and laboratory-based skill sets, training programs have evolved as clinical and embryology or laboratory-based courses. Clinical training programs for reproductive medicine in India is currently a mix of short certificate programs, institution backed fellowship programs, fellowship programs backed by universities, FnB reproductive medicine programs run by the National Board of Examinations and DM programs in reproductive medicine. Laboratory based training programs in embryology and andrology include short training programs focused on specific skills such as ICSI or freezing, informal observer ship and training by apprenticeship and more recently formal university recognized MSc training programs in embryology.
With the recent drive to regulate the space of reproductive medicine initiated by the Government of India, the demand for formal systems of speciality training that is accessible across the country is gaining importance. Furthermore, the role of counsellors and nurses is also gaining importance in this field, creating the need for structured training programs in this field.
