Cross-Border Outlook: Thailand and Malaysia See 30% Growth in Chinese Patients for Fertility Preservation
Despite the relaxation of some domestic rules, the demand for "social egg freezing" and donor programs continues to drive Chinese patients to Southeast Asian hubs. Agencies in Thailand and Malaysia report a 30% year-on-year growth in inquiries from Chinese career women seeking long-term fertility preservation options that remain restricted or heavily regulated in mainland China.
Business Insight: The "Cross-border Medical Corridor" remains a highly lucrative segment of the CMTF ecosystem. Agencies and international clinics should focus on building comprehensive "concierge" services—including genetic pre-screening and legal consulting—to capture the high-end segment of the market that prioritizes flexibility and advanced legislative protection.
