Mark P. Leondires, M.D., FACOG, medical director at Reproductive Medicine Associates Of CT says:

"Few Americans can count themselves 'viceless.' Whether it's having a glass or two of wine with dinner, a mid-day cigarette break or even a couple of cups of coffee to get going in the morning, the majority of us indulge in at least one less-than-healthy pleasure.

But for couples trying to achieve pregnancy, many of these lifestyle choices can make getting pregnant much more difficult.

It's precisely because of the intricacy of the process, and the delicate balance of hormones and timing involved, that we need to take a hard look at lifestyle as a key factor in infertility."
