It was reported today that some experts might refuse IVF treatment to smokers. Why? Are they saying that smoking causes infertility? If not, what are they saying?
If yes, how do they explain the baby boom just after WW2, when approx 80% of the male population were smokers?
I'm a non-smoker BTW.
prev Nit-picking pedantic political correctness?
  
next Were all gonna die........except for........?

To add a bit... if a person needed ivf wouldn't they want to MAXIMISE their chances and thus give up smoking? (even if fags were responsible for the minutest possibility of IVF failing?)

Incidentally my sister in law has been turned down for ivf because she is obese...(another "possible" reason her fertility may not be as great as others.

A wonderful way of birth-control.

We can now sue these experts if we get pregnant while smoking.

I have repeatedly given reasons for the baby boom - I do not understand why you cannot see that.
