Abstract 
I will describe how the existence of medical technologies for fertility treatment affects women's decision-making about their lives, especially about having children. I will present some basic data that helps us to understand the reality of reproduction in Japan. For example, Japan is the nation with the largest number of IVF-ET cycles per year. Through the life stories of women who have undergone fertility treatment, I explore the suffering and struggle to live without children caused by infertility, and how they survive these difficulties.
