Is there a baby clock for men? A time when we want to procreate more than just for the fun of it?

I've had the worst biological clock alarms lately. Just hoping its a real thing and I'm not alone.

    Think that is a real thing for guys too. Maybe your inner voice is telling you something right now. Being a good, present, & caring Dad is really important. You ready to do that? You married? Good luck... We need more good Dads out there. : ) Do you have any animal kids that you take care of? If you don't start with that first. Heee. Good Luck.

    Are you talking about men feeling a need to procreate? Or, do you mean the "biological clock" in the sense that you have a limited fertility window? 'Cause, while there is some slow down in fertility for men, a man can still theoretically procreate until he dies.

    I definitely know some men who feel "broody". I've known couples where the men have been the ones pushing for children because they felt drawn to have babies. One of my cousins was the broodiest - that man was so anxious to be a father, I felt like slapping a warning sign on him. It happens.

    Really??? it went off at about 12 and no matter how hard or often you hit the snooze button it pops back up even louder. No women are safe from testosterone ladon men. That's why we chase them. All of them. No worries Bro if you want kids there are plenty of women who want babies bad enough not to care what is going wrong in your life..

    I don't know - honestly I don't know if it really happens to women either (but apparently I've just not reached that age yet)... I will say though, that there are definitely times when it feels like I just want to be with someone (and I'm not implying just sexually)... I wonder how much of it though, it watching my friends get married off versus what I actually want.. Who knows?

    Honestly I've never heard this, but anything is possible.

    Having been in and around the fertility field for a while (6 years of infertility) I have gained alot of knowledge, men don't have a biological clock as such, like women do, but if you have a low sperm count it can impact fertility as you get older. While if you have no known issues with your sperm count/morphology/etc I would say you are fine.

    Men can have children no matter what age they are, unlike women.

    If you have a good women, who is also ready, i say go for it! :o)

    I know as a woman i have "relationship cravings" and "baby cravings". I guess this can be true for men, i'd say if you are financially stable and in a good healthy relationship then i don't see why you couldnt have one....as long as your woman is okay with it haha.
