Answer 2

A man fertility can decline with age. Sperm mutate and fertility begins to decline by 30 or even before.


"However, a study published in 2000 found that, in couples who successfully go on to have a baby, the probability that the couple will take longer than a year to conceive is about eight per cent when the man is under 25 but almost doubles to 15 per cent when the man is over 35 years of age. What's more, the older a man is, the more likely he is to have a problem fathering a child. A woman whose partner is at least five years older than her has less chance of conceiving within a year than a woman whose partner is the same age as her, irrespective of the age of the woman. The authors suggest that the odds on conceiving within a year of trying decrease by three per cent, for every year that the man is over the age of 24. "

As long as you don't damage any of the piping, it shouldn't have any adverse effects. The major causes of male infertility is damaged sperm, low sperm counts, low seman volume, and damaged plumbing. Low sperm count could be heritatary in nature, even as the doc told my wife and I, too much sex. Damaged plumbing can occur for many reasons. My friend can't have kids, from a bike accident he had as a kid. You know the bar in the middle if you miss your seat on a bike. It could even be something wrong with the testies. But as far as what you want to know, too much sex and masturbation can lower sperm count. Lay off for 12-24 hours, before you need to have intercourse and if that is the case, you should be fine.
