Male Fertility Age
and its Effect on Fertility
There is no question that male fertility decreases with age. However, the extent to which fertility decreases and the age at which fertility begins to decline varies from man to man. In general, though, male fertility begins to decline in the late thirties and early forties.
There are a number of reasons for this decline in fertility. One reason is that the number and quality of sperm decrease as a man ages. Additionally, the ability of sperm to move (motility) and to penetrate an egg (fertilization) decreases with age. Finally, the hormone testosterone, which is necessary for sperm production, decreases with age.
All of these factors together can lead to a decrease in fertility. In fact, the percentage of couples who are able to conceive naturally decreases from 65% for men in their twenties to 5% for men in their fifties.
While the decrease in fertility with age is certainly a concern, it is important to remember that not all men experience a decline in fertility. Additionally, advances in assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF) can help couples who are struggling to conceive.
So, while male fertility does decrease with age, it is not necessarily a cause for concern. If you are having difficulty conceiving and you are concerned about your age, please talk to your doctor. He or she can help you determine whether you need to seek additional help and can recommend the best course of treatment for you.
Fertility Hormones Test
Your fertility hormones test results can help your health care professional understand how well your ovaries are working. The test measures the levels of two hormones in your blood:
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
Luteinizing hormone (LH)
FSH and LH help control the process of ovulation.
Normal Results
FSH levels usually increase as a woman approaches menopause. This is because the ovaries are producing less estrogen.
LH levels usually increase as a woman approaches menopause. This is because the ovaries are producing less estrogen.
What the Results Mean
Low levels of FSH and LH may mean that you are not ovulating regularly. This could lead to problems getting pregnant.
High levels of FSH and LH may mean that you are ovulating too often. This could lead to problems with your fertility.
Good Of Fertility
There is much debate about what is good for fertility. It is not always clear what is best for couples trying to conceive. However, there are a few things that are known to be helpful.
First, it is important to have a healthy weight. Being overweight or underweight can affect fertility. For women, having a healthy weight means having a body mass index (BMI) between 18.5 and 24.9. For men, a healthy weight means having a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9.
Second, it is important to get enough exercise. Exercise helps to keep the body healthy and can improve fertility. For women, getting at least 30 minutes of exercise per day is recommended. For men, getting at least 30 minutes of exercise per day is also recommended.
Third, it is important to eat a healthy diet. Eating a healthy diet helps to keep the body healthy and can improve fertility. Some foods that are beneficial for fertility include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. It is also important to avoid processed foods, sugary drinks, and unhealthy fats.
Fourth, it is important to get enough sleep. Getting enough sleep helps to keep the body healthy and can improve fertility. For women, getting at least 7 hours of sleep per night is recommended. For men, getting at least 7 hours of sleep per night is also recommended.
Finally, it is important to reduce stress. Stress can affect fertility. For women, reducing stress can be done by practicing yoga or meditation. For men, reducing stress can be done by practicing yoga or meditation, or by doing something that relaxes them, such as fishing or golfing.
There are many things that couples can do to improve their fertility. Following these tips can help to increase the chances of conceiving.
Fertility God Sumerian
The fertility god of the Sumerian people was known as Dumuzi. He was often depicted with a goat, and was associated with the springtime. Dumuzi was said to bring new life to the earth, and was celebrated every year at the New Year’s festival. He was also worshipped as a god of agriculture, and was said to help farmers bring in a good harvest.
