Several recent studies are starting to persuade many doctors that men should not be too cavalier about postponing marriage and children.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/27/health/27sper.html?_r=1&n=Top%2fNews%2fHealth%2fDiseases%2c%20Conditions%2c%20and%20Health%20Topics%2fInfertility&oref=slogin"><P>Until now, the problems known to occur more often with advanced paternal age were so rare they received scant public attention. The newer studies were alarming because they found higher rates of more common conditions — including <A title="Recent and archival health news about autism." href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/health/diseasesconditionsandhealthtopics/autism/index.html?inline=nyt-classifier">autism</A> and <A title="Recent and archival health news about schizophrenia." href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/health/diseasesconditionsandhealthtopics/schizophrenia/index.html?inline=nyt-classifier">schizophrenia</A> — in offspring born to men in their middle and late 40s. A number of studies also suggest that male fertility may diminish with age. </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/182F3424-9B0E-4A1F-83AB-6BEF4626CC27/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
