OSA and infertility

Posted by matchstick on April 16, 2004 at 09:10:13:
I have been trying to get pregnant for almost five years now. I have taken Clomid, tried artificial insemination and had several tests done. I never did the hardcore fertility drugs or tried invitro-fertilization. Too invasive. I was finally diagnosed with unexplained infertility
So, now I've discovered I have OSA. My sleep study results showed I quit breathing 65/hour and my oxygen desaturated to the lower 80's.
I have not been able to find any information regarding sleep apnea and infertilty on my internet searches. Does anyone have any suggestions for where I might find such information if there is any?
