Usually not : While it's impossible to predict, decreased fertility is typically more associated with advanced maternal age rather than increasing paternal age. Good luck!

Keep in mind: That probability of conception is more dependent on maternal age than paternal age. Reproductive concerns related to advanced paternal age are less well defined. Even though your fiance is too young to qualify for advance paternal age, after age 40 it gets harder to conceive for both men and women. You are also too young to qualify for advance maternal age. Good luck!
