Background of the Study
Parenthood is a fundamental human need. The urge to reproduce is universal. Every human being has a desire to become a parent and look after his or her children. The very desire for parenthood is a step in the direction of creating a family. Fertility or the ability to reproduce children has a positive social value where as, infertility has a negative value in Indian culture. Today fertility and infertility have both emerged equally problematic in the world population context. Most fertile couples around 90% should get pregnancy, within a year of regular intercourse. This rises to 95% over a two-year period.

The pathways are designed to be used in multidisciplinary workshops to explore alternative approaches to care. Importantly, many of the changes advocated are not resource intensive and focus instead on working differently. Important features of this pathway include supporting and preparing women for labour and a belief that 'all pregnancies are normal unless proven otherwise' alongside the need for consistent, balanced information setting out the known risks and benefits of all modes of birth.
