Men’s IVF rates fall as they age

MEN also have a biological clock and it could affect IVF treatments.

New research conducted by Monash University has shown that IVF success rates decline as men get older, debunking the myth that only women experience a drop in fertility as they age.

The study analysed nearly 2500 cycles of Monash IVF patients and found that increasing male age is associated with stillbirth and miscarriages and the chance of live birth decreases by 4.1 per cent with each year of age.
