The announcement accompanied the delivery of a monitoring report on the infertility plan. According to Euronews and AFP, the campaign is intended to improve awareness of reproductive health and preservation options; sending the message remains a future step.

Le Parisien also reports the minister’s commitment to propose an amendment to the 2027 social security budget to increase the number of centres authorised to preserve eggs for non-medical reasons. That announced expansion is not yet an adopted regulatory change or an observed reduction in waiting times.
