The Krogan- Are they screwed?

Supposedly there is a quest that deals with that in the game.

Presumably they'll either end up outright cured, or the rate of viable pregnancies will be increased.

Unless we deal with that issue in the game, then yes, they are.

Ok I figured it would be adressed in game somehow, good to hear that's the case. The other thought I just had was if the krogan brought a large number of fertile females that would alleviate the problem somewhat

I've heard of that to lol well there you go we have it.

It's been mentioned multiple times by BioWare that this question gets answered in game /thread

Hopefully their women are... a lot. I want battle toads to fight!

I really dont get the genophage, isnt the galaxy big enough for everyone?

I'm half-expecting to find some magic genophage cure in Andromeda that will downplay the big deal it was in the trilogy with a hand wave.

Well the genophage does not reduce fertility rate but the pregnancy that comes to term.
The Salarian logic was that if the krogan stop fighting and focus on breeding they would stay stable, however they were quite naive on the subject.

-Saying "now you stop war forever, and we will keep killing your babies to ensure it" is no way to keep a population in check. Especially if they are as warmonging as the krogan.
-"Keep breeding and you will survive" is no plan either. Human women need to have a bit more than 2 children that comes to adulthood to ensure that the human race survives and fact showed that a woman can have a lot more than 2 children in their life, a krogan who lives way longer could theoricaly have more. However the genophage is a immense rise in miscariage not a decrease in fertility. If human female had to have 10 miscariages before having one child (who could still die) there would be heavy psychololgical issues.
Eve from mass effect 3 address that concern.

So yes the genophage was not concieved to anihilate from existence the krogan. But unless the krogan used all of their female as breeding slaves it was the only possible consequence of a "sucessful genophage". And let's remember that Mordin who defended the genophage for years admit in the end that he was wrong.

Now about Mass Effect Andromeda and the Krogan problem :
-Mordin had to upgrade the genophage because krogan were naturaly adapting to it, meaning they could still do it in the future and that there is no way the salarian could have re-infected the krogan across the entire galaxy.
-ME:A start between ME2 and ME3 so the AI could have the Maelon data or share information with Mordin's secret lab. After all it took only a few years of research (and only one with enough scientists) to find a cure to the genophage. I don't see why the AI which has a big scientist crew could not find a cure to the genophage.

So now i'm going to make conclusion about what could happen in Andromeda according to the trailers so spoiler i guess.
The AI is a huge project that require a lot of funding but also a lot of man power + a lot of volunteer to leave everything behind. The Krogan are perfect candidate for this : they are strong, resilient to hostile environment and could be additional muscle the AI need. Moreover we know from ME1 and ME2 that a lot of krogans does not care anymore about their homeland and civilisation and could easily be volunteer.
If the AI promised some Krogan to find a cure for the genophage (which seems not improbable) they could gain additional krogan which aspire to a new start similar as Wrex and his follower, but Wrex at that time had nothing to cure the genophage.
Now we know that once on Andromeda, the Krogan does not trust the Andromeda Initiative. Maybe it was always the case but I think it is because the AI cannot release all pods for the moment and focus on short term necessity to ensure their survival and for that reason delayed the cure for genophage for more urgent matter, resulting in a distrust.

No the galaxy wasn't big enough. The genophage was created to stop the Krogans when they turned against the Council Races and tried to pretty much take over known space.

I'm not a pro when it comes to ME lore but I've read Krogan can live a very very long time + they are tough + they have lots of offsprings...so basically a tendency for overpopulation .
If true it might be better for everyone to not cure the genophage or find some better birth control that doesn't involve stillborn.

Except it does not affect the number of egg, but if a pregnancy comes to term.
So no it is absolutly not 1 successful birth every year, but most likely a miscariage every year. They give birth to dead krogan again and again until it became too hard, that is the horror the genophage, Eve explained that.

Just imagine a woman who had to go throuh 3,5,10 miscariages to have one sane child and that you have to go through it several times to have a stable population (and remember that even without war, krogan inhabit dangerous planet so 2 children/woman is not a solution to a stable population.
