Manuscript Auditing →01Impact factor
Impact factor of Fertility And Sterility (2026)
The impact factor shown here is the 2-year mean citedness: citations received in a year by the papers Fertility And Sterility published in the two previous years, divided by the number of those papers. That is the same formula as the Journal Impact Factor, applied to the open citation data of OpenAlex. The journal is listed in JCR 2024, so it also has an official Journal Impact Factor published by Clarivate, which can differ because it counts citations from Web of Science journals only.
Rank in its subject categories
- Obstetrics & Gynecologyrank 77 of 143 journals
- Reproductive Biologyrank 31 of 43 journals
Ranks here compare journals of the same Web of Science category in our data by 2-year citedness; they are not the official JCR rank.
Quartile of Fertility And Sterility
A journal's quartile (Q1 to Q4) is its position within a subject category: Q1 is the top quarter.

Fertility And Sterility is listed in JCR 2024, so its JCR quartile is in Journal Citation Reports. ScholarsColab does not show a quartile until it can show the official one; the impact factor and rank above are calculated from open data.

No AI or language model is used. Your words are matched against the titles of 156,724 real published journal papers, by our mentors and by other researchers (shown without names); journals are ranked by how many closely matching papers they published. Indexing comes from the SCIE, SSCI, AHCI, ESCI, Scopus and JCR 2024 lists, matched by journal name; the impact factor is calculated from OpenAlex open data, not the official Clarivate value, and no quartile is shown until the official JCR or SJR quartile can be; review time comes from the dates publishers deposit in Crossref (not every publisher deposits them). Always check a journal’s scope and current indexing before submitting.
