A University of Adelaide (U-A) study has advised infertile couples to seek advice about their lifestyle before embarking on IVF treatment or other assisted reproductive technology.

Gillian Homan, fertility nurse specialist from the University's Robinson Institute, says that couples experiencing infertility should understand the role their own lifestyle can play in helping them achieve their goal of a healthy baby.

The reproductive health researcher surveyed 20 new patients from the Adelaide fertility clinic Repromed to gauge their perception of how lifestyle affects fertility.While the evidence of the impact of weight on fertility is very strong, only half of theoverweight women in this study considered their own weight to be a risk factor for infertility.
