A recent research suggests that poor fertility and taking longer period to conceive may cause mild neurological problems in children.

A team of Dutch scientists assessed the health of 209 two-year-old children born to parents who had difficulties conceiving for more than a year and most of whom had undergone fertility treatment.
It was found that 8% of the children born to parents who took longer time, on an average four years, to conceive had mild neurological problems. While parents of children without any problem on an average took two years and eight months to conceive.
According to the authors, factors associated with poor fertility may influence neurological development in children.
