Men at the age of 55 are still fertile as long as they are in good health. Fertility function in men is related to whether the male semen and spermatozoa are normal, whether the spermatic ducts are clear, and whether the level of sex hormones is normal, among other factors.
The spermatogonia in the testicular tissue of a healthy male develops into sperms in the varicocele, and then the sperms go to the epididymis and develop and mature in the epididymis. When ejaculation occurs, the vas deferens peristalsis, and the sperms are mixed with the seminal vesicle fluid and the prostatic fluid, and then discharged through the urethra. Therefore, a male at 55 years old, as long as the functions mentioned above are normal, then he/she is still capable of bearing a child.
If a 55-year-old male suffers from oligospermia, dysgerminosis, testicular torsion, orchitis, epididymitis, vesiculitis, prostatitis, post-pituitary tumor surgery, Koch’s syndrome and other diseases, then it is possible that the patient can not have children.
If 55-year-old men want to have children, please follow the doctor’s instructions to improve the relevant examination.
