6 Countries with the Lowest Fertility Rates

4. Hong Kong 

Children Born per Woman: 1.23 

Hong Kong, despite its bustling nature, has the lowest fertility rates and related challenges like infant mortality, miscarriages, abortions, and infertility. Fertility rates have declined over the years, prompting reliance on assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization (IVF), regulated by the Human Reproductive Technology Ordinance. Environmental toxins, like PCBs and pesticides, contribute to infertility by disrupting endocrine functions.
