Yes, an older adult can contract mumps, although it is more common in children. Mumps is caused by a viral infection and can affect individuals of any age, especially those who are not vaccinated or have not previously had the disease.

Having mumps at a young age typically does not affect fertility, especially if the infection occurred before puberty. Mumps can lead to complications such as orchitis (inflammation of the testicles) in post-pubertal males, which may impact fertility. However, if you had mumps in early childhood and did not experience such complications, it is unlikely to have any long-term effects on fertility. It's always best to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
