Is it risky to give birth at 39



The age of 39 is considered to be a high maternal age, and the probability of complications during pregnancy is higher in advanced maternal age than in normal maternal age, which increases the risk of childbirth to a certain extent.

Childbirth is inherently risky, and the risk of complications during pregnancy is generally higher in older mothers than in women of the right age, such as gestational diabetes, gestational hypertension, and thrombophilia; there is also a higher likelihood of abnormal fetal development. If there is an underlying disease at age 39, the risks faced in pregnancy and delivery will be higher.

Pregnant women of advanced age should increase the frequency of obstetric checkups, closely monitor themselves and their fetuses before and during pregnancy, and actively deal with any abnormalities once they are detected.

Women who want to have children at the age of 39 are advised to go to a regular hospital, consult with a professional doctor, and cooperate with the doctor to complete the relevant examinations, so as to avoid blind treatment.
