  Pensioners 'have better sperm than men of 20'

  
  

  Twenty-year-old men have worse sperm quality than men of 60, according to a new Danish report.

  
  

  The average 20-year-old had half as many sperm as the average 60-year-old, and many of the younger men were close to infertile.

  
  

   "One explanation is that more and more woman are heavy smokers. We need more and better studies of how the foetus is affected during pregnancy."
