Fertility in old age, what conditions apply
Although both emblematic Hollywood actors show that male fertility can last for years, the truth is that science warns that there are certain conditions.
Unlike a woman, who is born with a limited number of eggs, a man produces sperm throughout his life. However, men’s fertility also decreases with age.
From the age of 45, “the age of sperm genetic load begins to undergo changes,” according to the report Myths of Male Fertility, Amnios In Vitro Projet.
For this reason, they may be less fertile after that age, and age affects the chances of having children with chromosomal abnormalities or miscarriage.
“Over the years, there is a deterioration of sperm parameters, including genetics, as well as poorer reproductive success, in addition to the morphological and hormonal changes that aging entails,” the report added.
The Mayo Clinic notes that research does identify certain health problems in children of older men, although the risk is low.
Among the genetic disorders that can occur in children of parents older than 40, he mentions achondroplasia or dwarfism and a tendency to develop autism.
Children whose parents are over the age of 50 “may be at greater risk of developing the brain disorder schizophrenia than children whose children are under the age of 25.”
