“Those who found guilty of practicing infertility and fertility treatment without a license or at a level other than the required licensed level shall be penalized with one or more of the following penalties: imprisonment for a period of up to five years; a fine of up to SR500000, and cancellation of the license to practice the profession,” the Public Prosecution said.
In a statement on its social media X account, the Public Prosecution clarified that medical intervention is permissible to treat infertility resulting from poor fertility or the presence of a medical problem that can be treated based on a medical report.
