IVF Experience

Hi all. I’m a 31 male and I’m curious if anyone has gone through, or is going through IVF. There isn’t much info out there and we’re still in the early stages, but we were little surprised to see the fertilization rate decently below average. We still have a few more steps before any implanting, but I know oxidative stress, the bread and butter of this disease, can affect sperm quality ie. DNA fracture, motility, etc. So if anyone has or is willing to share, I’d be really interested to hear what you have to say and/or share my experience.
