Auto-delete messages (iMessages) 6 month’s

Is there a way to have messages clear/delete at 6 months? A year is too long and 30 days is too short. If it cannot be done, has Apple even considered this?

How do I set auto delete of iMessages in less than 30 days? I am aware I can set messages to auto delete after 30 days but is there any way to delete them sooner? For context my father has Alzheimer’s and reading old messages sets him going again on the same topic. If messages could delete once sent it would halt the cycle and mean he will be more contented.
