How does this explain the higher rate of suicidal ideation/actions in depressed adolescents who are at their biological prime for reproduction?

I don't know. Except maybe that biologically they're supposed to have children instead of sitting in school and waiting for marriage, home and a job.

No idea what this means if you're a male. Males are fertile forever basically, so there isn't some "optimal" age to have offspring.

By your logic, males should be continuously fathering offspring throughout their lives, as soon as they reach puberty.
