We conducted epidemiological research of WHO record for the estimation of prevalence and characteristics of infertility in young women living in Zabaykalsky District. The research included 2932 women of 18-35 years, 731 of them had infertility. Frequency of infertility exceeds 15% critical level, determined by WHO, and reaches 24,9 % (22,3 % - in town, 25,8 % - in countryside). Secondary infertility appears more often that primary one (54,2 % vs 45,8 %). 44,0 % of young infertile women don't plan pregnancy.
