Clomiphene Citrate Market - Impact of Coronavirus (Covid-19) Pandemic
COVID-19 is expected to have a moderate impact on the clomiphene citrate market, owing to issues in transportation of drugs and medical devices.

Thus, COVID-19 pandemic has affected the economy in three main ways; 1) by directly affecting the production and demand; 2) by creating disruptions in distribution channels; and 3) through its financial impact on companies and financial markets. Supply chain and manufacturing activities in India and China have been disrupted due to the global lockdowns, while countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, and others are facing problems with regards to transportation of drugs.
Furthermore, the increasing research and development, and agreements among key players are major factors that are expected to drive growth of the clomiphene citrate market during the forecast period.
