[edit] Fertility after 35
Shouldn't it be fertility after 30? Why 35? Epachamo 17:59, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] March of Dimes?
Is the MoD really the best source for this info? I guess it's not Reader's Digest but there must be something better?!? Thanks, Hu Gadarn 22:15, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] removing original research
I'm removing the following info. It effectively declares itself to be original research, which isn't allowed. Also, it isn't correct. The numbers used are for Down syndrome, not miscarriage. And even if they were the numbers for miscarriage, they wouldn't necessarily reflect the same population studied in the numbers for conception. --Allen 23:24, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Multiplying the conception rate times the miscarriage rate times the birth defect rates should yield a rough likelihood of a healthy birth: 30-year-olds: .91 x .85 x .999 = 77% 35-year-olds: .84 x .80 x .9975 = 67% 40-year-olds: .64 x .55 x .99 = 35% (Note: These statistics are mathematically projected (interpolated) and not the results of actual study.)
[edit] Great Information Resource about Fertility...
Hey everyone,
This website helped me out alot during my research for more information. It is called Fertility Pro Registry. It has legit FAQ’s and detailed info links (very helpful) to different possible procedures and stuff. It made my searching much easier because everything is in one place instead of having to aimsley search for different information and advertisements (annoying). I figured I would pass it on. It also lists a bunch of info on Fertility Centers and Specialists throughout the states.
Best of luck.
