Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

The estimate is built upward from unit volumes: prescription fills and procedure counts for hormonal therapies, contraceptive device placements such as implants, IUDs and patches, and diagnostic test volumes across this market's application categories, each multiplied by realised average selling prices drawn from payer and pharmacy pricing data by country. This bottom-up build is then checked against disclosed product-line revenue reported by the therapeutics, device and diagnostics companies named in this report. Where a country's implied revenue diverges materially from a company's disclosed regional split, the bottom-up volume or price assumption is revisited and corrected, rather than adjusting the disclosed company figure to match it.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Interviews target commercial and medical affairs leads at hormonal therapy and device manufacturers, procurement and formulary managers at hospital and retail pharmacy chains, and clinicians in gynecology, fertility and menopause practice who influence prescribing and device selection. Regulatory affairs contacts at national medicines agencies are included to confirm approval timing for recently launched therapies and devices. Sampling weights toward the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, China and India, reflecting where the largest treatment volumes and the most active regulatory activity for this market's product categories currently sit, with additional coverage in Brazil and the Gulf states to capture demand patterns outside the largest markets.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on FDA and EMA product approval and label databases for hormonal therapies and devices, national customs HS codes covering contraceptive devices and diagnostic kits, clinical trial registrations on ClinicalTrials.gov for therapies in late-stage development, and procedure volume benchmarks published by professional bodies including the American Society for Reproductive Medicine and the International Osteoporosis Foundation. Country-level pharmaceutical pricing and reimbursement registers, along with listed companies' annual reports and investor filings for the therapeutics, device and diagnostics companies named in this report, complete the desk research base.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast is driven by rising diagnosis rates for menopause, PCOS and endometriosis as screening broadens, continued growth in fertility treatment uptake, and a gradual shift of diagnostic and monitoring spend toward home and point-of-care settings. Pricing is assumed to hold roughly flat in real terms for established hormonal therapies as generic competition offsets list price increases, while newer devices and diagnostics carry a premium that narrows as adoption scales. The forecast normalises for the temporary dip in elective gynecological procedures during 2020 and 2021, treating the subsequent rebound as a return to trend rather than as new demand. For the forecast to hold, diagnosis rates must keep broadening rather than plateauing.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Forecast outputs are back-tested against recorded 2020-2024 growth for each application and age segment to confirm the modeled trajectory does not diverge from realised history at the point the forecast begins. Segment share shifts, including the move toward diagnostics and home-based products, are reviewed against the interview sample to confirm clinicians and commercial leads see the same direction of change rather than the model alone implying it. Sensitivities were tested on the pace of diagnosis-rate broadening and on hormonal therapy pricing, since these two assumptions move the forecast total the most if either proves slower or more competitive than assumed.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is strongest in the contraceptives and postmenopausal osteoporosis segments, where prescription volumes and device placements are well documented through payer and regulatory data. It is weaker in PCOS and home diagnostics, where diagnosis and purchase patterns are less consistently reported across countries and self-administered product sales are harder to track than prescription volumes. The main structural risk to this estimate is a faster or slower than assumed broadening of diagnosis rates for underdiagnosed conditions, which would shift segment mix and total revenue more than a pricing or competitive change would.
