Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Ron said something in CoS to the 
effect that if the wizards hadn't married muggles they would've died 
out? 

Considering how racist wizards seem to be, I would imagine that if 
any other option to intermarriage existed they would've taken it. 
The same goes to mixed marriages with other species, like giants. 

This would lead to the conclusion that the wizarding world doesn't 
have some form of magic fertility treatment, otherwise they would've 
used it long ago to increase their diminishing numbers.
