Age and fertility in men and women are widely related, here we talk a little about this relationship and the possibilities to preserve fertility over time.
The biological clock doesn’t stop!
It is well known that as the years go by, fertility in women is affected by changes in the quantity and quality of the eggs, but few studies have been carried out regarding the relationship between age and fertility in men. Research published in the Journal Fertility and Sterility found that men over 40 years of age are less fertile than younger men, indicating that age and fertility in men are related although the problem is not as serious as when talking about age and fertility in women.
Today there are different techniques that allow these fertility problems to be solved in women, one of them is in vitro fertilization, in which the eggs are fertilized by a sperm outside the body.
According to reports from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of the United States, the success rate of in vitro fertilization treatments when the woman’s own egg is used decreases with age, while when this procedure is performed with the eggs of a donor, the success rate remains constant, showing In this way a possible solution to the complications presented by the relationship between age and fertility.
