@dw.science: The idea of a dramatic “fertility cliff” at 35 is everywhere, but the science is more nuanced. Many of those scary graphs are based on rather controversial data and outdated studies.

And since male fertility also decreases over time, age matters, but there’s no single cutoff. Author: Sophia Wagner, Hannah Fuchs #plus90science #dwscience #dwhealth #fertilitymaxxing #pregnancy
