Summary

Pregnancy care in Canada is a cornerstone of maternal and child health, underpinned by a universal healthcare system that provides essential prenatal and postnatal services. The Canadian healthcare landscape offers a comprehensive framework for expectant mothers, encompassing a mix of public and private services. While access to basic prenatal care is generally equitable, disparities exist in the quality and availability of specialized services, particularly in rural and remote regions. Factors such as maternal age, socioeconomic status, and immigrant background can influence the overall pregnancy experience. The increasing emphasis on women's health and the evolving needs of expectant mothers have led to a growing demand for innovative care models, including midwifery services, prenatal education programs, and specialized support for high-risk pregnancies. While the market shares similarities with other developed nations, its distinct regulatory framework, emphasis on maternal and infant well-being, and diverse population present unique opportunities and challenges. The recent surge in telehealth adoption, spurred by the COVID-19 pandemic, has accelerated the digital transformation of pregnancy care, with virtual consultations, remote monitoring, and online support groups becoming increasingly prevalent. Moreover, the growing trend of delayed motherhood and increased rates of multiple births have created new demands for specialized pregnancy care services.

According to the research report "Canada Pregnancy Care Market Overview, 2029," published by Bonafide Research, the Canadian Pregnancy Care market is projected to grow by more than 6% CAGR from 2024 to 2029. One of the primary drivers is the increasing number of women of childbearing age. As the population grows and the average age of first-time mothers increases, the demand for pregnancy care services rises accordingly. Additionally, rising levels of education and awareness about maternal health have led to greater emphasis on prenatal care and well-being. Moreover, government initiatives promoting maternal and child health have played a crucial role in driving market growth. Another significant factor is the growing trend of delayed motherhood. As women focus on education and career advancement, they often delay childbearing. This trend has led to an increase in the demand for fertility treatments, prenatal care, and specialized services for older pregnant women. Furthermore, the rising incidence of conditions such as gestational diabetes and preeclampsia has created a need for specialized pregnancy care. However, the Canadian pregnancy care market faces several challenges. One major obstacle is the geographic disparity in access to care. While urban areas have a relatively good network of healthcare providers, rural and remote regions often lack adequate resources. This can lead to delayed or inadequate prenatal care for women in these areas. Another challenge is the rising cost of healthcare. Pregnancy care, including prenatal checkups, ultrasounds, and childbirth, can be expensive. This financial burden can be particularly difficult for low-income women, leading to delayed or forgone care. Additionally, the shortage of healthcare professionals, including obstetricians and midwives, can limit access to care, especially in certain regions.
Skincare products specifically formulated for pregnant women address the unique dermatological changes experienced during this period. This segment includes moisturizers, stretch mark creams, and facial products tailored to hormonal shifts. Maternity apparel is another essential category, offering clothing that accommodates the evolving body shape, ensuring comfort and style. Pregnancy support products such as belly bands, maternity pillows, and back supports address physical discomforts commonly associated with pregnancy. Wearable pregnancy devices, a relatively new segment, incorporate technology to monitor fetal health, track contractions, or provide sleep aids. Postpartum care products focus on recovery and breastfeeding, including nursing bras, nipple creams, and perineal care items.

The distribution channel for pregnancy care products in Canada significantly influences consumer purchasing behavior. Independent pharmacies and drug stores form a crucial segment, benefiting from their established presence in communities and direct interaction with customers. These stores often provide personalized advice and recommendations from pharmacists, building trust and loyalty among expectant mothers. Online stores, on the other hand, offer convenience and a vast product range, appealing to tech-savvy consumers and those in remote areas. The growth of e-commerce has been particularly pronounced in Canada, with many consumers opting for the ease of home delivery. Hospital pharmacies serve a specific demographic of expectant mothers, providing essential products and potentially exclusive offerings.

The approach of the report:
This report consists of a combined approach of primary and secondary research. Initially, secondary research was used to get an understanding of the market and list the companies that are present in it. The secondary research consists of third-party sources such as press releases, annual reports of companies, and government-generated reports and databases. After gathering the data from secondary sources, primary research was conducted by conducting telephone interviews with the leading players about how the market is functioning and then conducting trade calls with dealers and distributors of the market. Post this; we have started making primary calls to consumers by equally segmenting them in regional aspects, tier aspects, age group, and gender. Once we have primary data with us, we can start verifying the details obtained from secondary sources.
