Summary:The emergence of telehealth including telemedicine, at-home testing, and mobile health applications has enabled patients to self-manage their reproductive care, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Reproduction is rapidly changing and embracing deeptech initiatives that can improve outcomes and facilitate personalized fertility solutions in the near future.
