Worldwide, the number of births conceived via assisted reproduction technology (ART) is increasing rapidly. This rise is attributed to increasing availability of infertility treatments, technological advances in success rates, and the rising demand for ART as a consequence of delayed childbearing. Recent estimates suggest that more than 10 million children worldwide have been conceived through ART [1], with Denmark having one of the highest proportions of children born following ART, exceeding 10% [2]. As ART utilisation expands and plays an increasingly important role in the realisation of fertility intentions, understanding its implications for parental mental health is a public health and epidemiological priority.

Abstract
Worldwide, the number of births conceived via assisted reproduction technology (ART) is increasing rapidly. This rise is attributed to increasing availability of infertility treatments, technological advances in success rates, and the rising demand for ART as a consequence of delayed childbearing. Recent estimates suggest that more than 10 million children worldwide have been conceived through ART [1], with Denmark having one of the highest proportions of children born following ART, exceeding 10% [2]. As ART utilisation expands and plays an increasingly important role in the realisation of fertility intentions, understanding its implications for parental mental health is a public health and epidemiological priority.
