The fertility rate per month is only about 5% per month and even with IVF the pregnancy rate is only about 10% per try.

Getting pregnant While further research is needed, studies suggest that a father's age at the time of conception (paternal age) might pose health risks for his children. For example, studies have shown that the offspring of men over age 40 might face an increased risk of:1  Miscarriage.2  Some research suggests that advanced paternal age is associated with a slightly higher risk of miscarriage.3  Autism. 4  Research shows a link between advanced paternal age and an increased frequency of autism.or example, studies have shown that the offspring of men over age 40 might face an increased risk of: 1  Miscarriage. 2  Some research suggests that advanced paternal age is associated with a slightly higher risk of miscarriage. 3  Autism. 4  Research shows a link between advanced paternal age and an increased frequency of autism.

Age and Fertility (For many years, researchers wondered whether the uterus was also affected by the aging process, but today it is clear that decline in fertility is mostly due to the results of the aging egg.) The inability to produce healthy, viable eggs often results in lower pregnancy rates as well as higher rates of miscarriage in women over the age of 35. For women over 40, getting pregnant is only half the journey. As miscarriage rates over 40 are 50% and rise quickly with each advancing year. Hormone testing to assess egg quality

downs syndrome and age This from the National Down Syndrome Society (http://www.ndss.org): Maternal age is the only factor that has been linked to an increased chance of having a baby with Down syndrome resulting from nondisjunction. A 35-year-old woman has a one in 350 chance of conceiving a child with Down syndrome. By age 45, the incidence has increased to one in 30. However, because younger women have higher fertility rates, 80 percent of babies with Down syndrome are born to women under the age of 35.

Genetic Testing At age 25, a woman has a one in 1,250 risk for having a child with Down syndrome. The risk increases to one in 952 at age 30, to one in 378 at age 35, to one in 106 at age 40 and one in 35 at age 45. However, 80% of children born with Down syndrome are born to mothers under the age of 35.This is because most babies, in general, are born to younger women.sually, children born with the condition have some degree of mental retardation, as well as characteristic physical features. Many of these children also have other health problems. Each year in the U.S., approximately one in every 800 to 1,000 newborns has Down syndrome.
