With the full liberalization of the two-child policy, more and more mothers are becoming concerned about the question: what is the limit age for women to have children? If a woman has her first child after the age of 35, she is an advanced maternal age. What does it mean once you are classified as an advanced maternal age? Some people say that the risk factor of giving birth to a child at an advanced age is high, there is a risk of difficult delivery, and the child may be unhealthy, and others say that the older you are, the less likely you are to conceive a child …… Are these true? Today, let’s talk with you about those things that senior women have children! 1, what is the limit age of women giving birth to children? I’m afraid no one can give a definite answer to this question, as long as there are individual differences, it is impossible to have a standard answer. Let’s take a look at a few extreme examples of the world’s oldest women giving birth. In 2003, a 65-year-old Indian woman, Satyabhama Mahapatra, finally gave birth to her first child. Doctors used her eggs and her husband’s sperm to implant them in her after artificial insemination, and the pregnancy and delivery went smoothly. Ms. Iliescu, a retired university professor in Romania, underwent hormone injections for nine years, successfully prolonged her periods, became pregnant artificially using sperm donated by others, and gave birth to two girls at the age of 67. After the accidental death of her eldest daughter, she decided to undergo IVF and gave birth to twin daughters at the age of 60, thus setting a birth record for an elderly woman in China. From these cases, it is easy to see that although they were past their prime when they gave birth, the conception process went through a lot of twists and turns, and they all needed high-tech medical means to conceive successfully. 2, if natural conception, how late a woman can still conceive a child? Simply put, as long as you are not menopausal, it is possible to get pregnant. Natural menopause represents the decline of ovarian function, the depletion of estrogen secretion, the cessation of menstruation and the termination of reproductive function. In general, most women go through menopause between the ages of 45 and 55. The age of menopause varies by about 10 years depending on the individual’s body type, so there are both people who go through menopause in their thirties and those who can still conceive and have children naturally in their fifties. The latest age of effective conception is usually considered to be 10 years prior to the onset of menopause. For example, if the age of menopause is 48 years, then 38 years is the limit of the effective age of conception. Is this result surprising to many people? This is why so many celebrities, although not to the age of menopause, but the road to childbirth is extremely difficult, either no way to seek a child, or only with the help of medical means artificial intervention to succeed. The artificial intervention mentioned here is the IVF technology, some people still have resistance to the mention of IVF, in fact, some couples nowadays can obviously conceive naturally, but also will choose IVF. Women’s 20s-30s This time of peak childbirth is still the most popular time to get pregnant. You may hear that the younger a woman is, the easier it is to conceive. This is because studies have found that eggs are more active and healthier, and therefore have a higher chance of conception overall. There are also the following advantages: 1. Better quality eggs reduce the chance of infection in the baby. 2. The chances of miscarriage are lower. 3. The time required for recovery after delivery is relatively shorter. In addition, age also has an impact on the delivery process. According to the survey, about 80% of women between 20 and 30 years old give birth naturally because the muscles of the uterus and hips of young women are more elastic, which can make the process of childbirth more smooth. But in reality, even though young women adapt more easily to the physical changes, they are not yet able to enter into a parental role, either financially or psychologically. Women’s 30s and 40s If you choose to delay pregnancy until after the age of 30, you are not alone, as more and more women are choosing this stage to have their babies. In fact, there is no need to worry if you get pregnant at this time, because your health, energy and fertility are still in an ideal state and the quality of your eggs is still good, so the chance of genetic defects is still low. However, as you get older, you may need to pay more attention if you get pregnant after the age of 35, because the chance of Down’s syndrome increases after the age of 35, so your doctor may need to perform amniotic fluid diagnosis or other tests to make sure that the pregnancy is okay. After 40: Experts are not lying, it is true that pregnancy at this stage can be very tiring, as soccer players usually stop playing soccer after the age of 40, you do not have the advantage in terms of physical strength and your energy recovery is slower. But in fact, many mothers have a very smooth and healthy pregnancy, and on the other hand, they have less morning sickness, because the hormones produced by the body are relatively low at this stage, so the placenta is relatively small, so the vomiting is not as severe as in younger pregnancies. Think about the 46 year old Yining who is still trying to find a way to prepare for her pregnancy, or about the 142 days of bed rest and 300 injections before she gave birth to her baby, although they still look young and beautiful, their fertility does not stay because of their beautiful appearance. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. In the matter of the second child, it is good to do what you can!
