The University of Florence in Italy surveyed almost 1,500 people online regarding their child-bearing plans about three weeks into the lockdown in Italy. Each person had been in a heterosexual relationship for a year or more.

The other 60 percent who were trying to have a baby before the pandemic continued with their plans, mostly because they feared infertility would prevent the possibility if they waited, the study says.

For 11 percent of respondents, the pandemic actually inspired them to conceive. Mostly women, this group feels that having a child would bring a change and create positivity in their lives.

Birth-control pills have also become out of reach for women in rural areas in Africa and Asia, the AP reports.
