Can a 43 year old man still have children?

Question

me and my fiance are planning on having children next year. he is 42 now and I am 22. I really hope we can have children together!

Answer 1

Yes, but I personally think after 45 people shouldn't be having kids anymore.

Answer 2

Yuppers. Good luck with the new possible bun int eh oven.

Answer 3

No. A man cant have children. Women can though.

A 43 year old man can impregnate you, but the last time i checked he couldnt have the child.

Ok, im being silly and playing on words.

I became a father the first time when i was 39, im certain a 43 year old could as well if he is in good shape.

Answer 4

Yes!  Good luck!

Answer 5

I would assume so since I am 24 and my 47 year old husband are expecting our first together.  It just takes patience sometimes.  Good luck.

Answer 6

Provided the equipment still works, yeah, sure.

Answer 7

yeah you can, if people tell you that you can't just because of age. Don't let them lie to you

age has nothing to do with reproductive systems in guys

Answer 8

yes, as long as he hasn't had a vasectomy.

Answer 9

Men are virile right into their 90s overall.

Answer 10

As long as he is still intact you are just fine. Good luck and you should feel proud for waiting! Mandy

Answer 11

OK - if you have to ask the question - you MAY be too young to have kids!  I would recommend you wait till you are 26 - he will be 46 and too tired to play with kids but still "up" for making them.  Geez I am in a bratty mood -sorry - and good luck!

Answer 12

yes you can you still young. and i know a 65 yr. old guy who just had a baby

Answer 13

As long as he is not "fixed" I dont see any reason why not but it will probably take longer.  Just to make sure, he should go for a physical/spern analysis but I would say "slowly but surely" unless other physical problems exist

Answer 14

yes they can, i believe my father was at that age when my mom and him had my 2 yr old sister and im 20!! both were in their 40's so yes it happens :]

Answer 15

Yes for sure!  but I'd hold off- you're young.  Babies change your world forever.  I just had my first at 28.  From 22-27 I made memories for a lifetime- enjoying the "freedom" years.  Not that motherhood isn't the best, just make sure you get some good travel and adventure stories to tell your kids :)  And don't worry- unless he has a medical problem- he should be good for another 10-20 years! Good luck!

Answer 16

A man can reproduce until the day he dies. As long as he does not have a vasectomy you should be fine. Look at Donald Trump he was 60 when his son Barron was born (now 2) and David Letterman was 56 when his son Harry was born (now  4 ½ )

If he wants he could go to the doctor and see what his sperm count is.

Answer 17

o.k. everyone on here says it.   My father in law had a baby in his early eighties.   (grrr, that h!!!, she just wanted his $$$).

Answer 18

Most of the time, unless there are other problems.  Men generally don't have a limit on fertility like women do, at least not to the same extent.

Answer 19

Yes you can, but geesh- he's old enough to be your father!

Answer 20

Absolutely!

Women start having problems with fertility as they age, because a woman is born with all her her eggs.  A man, however, constantly produces sperm.

My husband is 45 years old (he is 15 years older than I), and our youngest child is about to celebrate her first birthday.

Answer 21

yea, my dad is 50 and i'm 13 and my mom is 46 and they had me ad b4 they had my older sister tht me & her are

15 1/2 yrs apart sooo yea.

Answer 22

my husband is 42 and we have 3 kids, and our youngest is 6 months so it is possible. but if you both have doubts you could make an appointment with your doctor just to double check.
