Hi
I was a smoker (until got BFP) during the icsi/iui cycles I smoked but cut down. I did try and give up but I found the process so stressful I just couldn't give it up all together. I don't think that it would effect anything many women become pregnant when smoking. It is very easy to give up once you get the BFP!! I also only had a few during the 2ww.
Male factor
April isci - Cancelled
June isci - Failed
Oct iui - BFN
Apri iui - BFP!

I doubt that a smoking history has much relationship to success rates in donor cycles.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.
