What is the percentage of infertile people in the world. Men and women?
According to www.INED.fr The number of men and women in the world is roughly equal, though men hold a slight lead with 101 men for 100 women (in 2005). More precisely, out of 1,000 people, 503 are men (50.3%) and 497 are women (49.7%). For every 100 girls, 105 boys are born, but males have a higher risk of dying than females, both in childhood and at adult ages. So at a certain age, the numbers of men and women even out. In France this occurs at age 35 (in 2005). Beyond this age, women outnumber men and the numerical difference between the two sexes increases with age. In France, eight centenarians in ten are women (in 2005).
