Incheon City announced on the 13th that it will support 250 couples with Korean medicine treatment to help infertile couples conceive naturally and reduce their financial burden.


The support targets infertile couples residing in Incheon. For the first three months, each person can receive Korean herbal medicine treatment worth 1.2 million KRW, and for the following three months, post-treatment care is provided. Both spouses can receive support simultaneously, or only one of them can receive support.


However, during the treatment period, support for Western infertility procedures is not available, and overlapping support from other Korean medicine infertility programs is also prohibited.


The city started the Korean medicine infertility treatment program in 2020, signed a business agreement with the Incheon Korean Medicine Association, and designated 87 Korean medicine clinics where infertility treatment can be received this year.


Infertile couples wishing to receive support must submit an application form and infertility diagnosis documents to the health center of their local district or county, receive a support decision notice, and then receive treatment at the designated Korean medicine clinic.



An Incheon City official stated, "This year, we expanded the number of Korean medicine infertility treatment institutions so that infertile couples can use the services more conveniently and reduce their financial burden."
