Does Sperm Quality Decrease With Age?

Yes, the quality of sperm does decrease with age. In fact, a decline in sperm count should also not come as a surprise as you cross your late 30s! Research suggests that sperm count and motility decrease with increasing age in men. Therefore, you can expect to have low sperm count and motility in older men compared to someone who's in their 20s or early 30s. This makes embracing fatherhood a little difficult for men who have crossed this age. Therefore, it is advised that all men should take care of their reproductive health if they wish to become a father in the future. The best way to do this is to analyze your sperm health regularly. So if there's ever a decline in your sperm quality, you can take necessary fertility treatments or opt for sperm banking.¹
