Are you asking if they'd be a horn-dog forever? j/k

I'd guess essentially ageless, excepting they may take on the personality of their original self and by extension it could be age specific.

I think much of their humanity gets erased when they are resurrected. Imagine living longer than anyone you ever knew or would know. What a horrible fate.

I believe their brains must get rewired so that success in saving humanity does not include pro-creation.

Pretty much. See: Efrideet.
