August 21st, 2013. Andropause is the technical term for the hormone imbalance all men will experience as they age.

A healthy male may be able to make sperm well into his eighties or longer. However, as a result of disease, subtle changes in the function of the testes may occur as early as 45 to 50 years of age, and more dramatically after the age of 70 in some men.
