Is giving birth old at 34?

With the development of society and the improvement of people's living standards, the phenomenon of women's late marriage and late childbirth is becoming more and more common. Generally speaking, 35 years old and above are considered as elderly mothers, but many people will doubt whether 34 years old is an elderly child. This article will elaborate whether 34 years old childbearing is considered old from four aspects: physical condition, pregnancy risk, pregnancy probability and social environment.

Physical condition

Women's fertility began to decline around the age of 30, and declined sharply after the age of 35. However, the fertility of 34 year old women is still at a relatively high stage. At this age, most women still have good fertility. In addition, at the age of 34, women's physical indicators are generally in a good state, such as the ovarian function is relatively normal, and the ovulation cycle is regular. Therefore, from the perspective of physical condition, 34 years old can not be fully counted as an elderly child.

However, with the increase of age, the female reproductive system begins to show signs of aging, and problems such as decreased endometrial thickness and uterine tension may occur. These problems may increase the risk of pregnancy bleeding, placental abruption and other complications, and pose a threat to the safety of mothers and infants.

In addition, 34 years old is a critical point, that is, the risk of pregnancy for women after 35 years old is significantly increased. Therefore, 34 year old women should rationally assess their physical conditions and risks when considering childbearing.

Maternity risk

The risk of pregnancy increases with age. Women aged 35 and over face higher risks of abortion, fetal termination, premature delivery, gestational diabetes and other complications of pregnancy and childbirth. In addition, with the growth of age, the risk of carrying a fetus with chromosomal abnormalities will also increase, such as Down syndrome. Therefore, when giving birth at the age of 34, women need to pay more attention to the risks of pregnancy and childbirth and actively accept various prenatal and prenatal examinations.

Probability of conception

The probability of conception is one of the important indicators to determine fertility. With the increase of age, the probability of pregnancy of women gradually decreases, especially after the age of 35. However, the pregnancy probability of 34 year old women is still relatively high. According to some studies, the natural pregnancy probability of 34 year old women is about 15% every month, while that of 35 year old women is about 10%. Therefore, from the perspective of pregnancy probability, a 34 year old woman is not considered as an elderly child.

However, considering the impact of age on egg quality, it is still recommended to consult a doctor as early as possible for pregnancy planning when giving birth at the age of 34, and choose assisted reproductive technology when necessary to improve the success rate.

social environment

*The latter aspect is the social environment. With the growth of age, women's career development, economic status, family stability and other factors will have an impact on fertility decision-making. At the age of 34, when career and family are under dual pressure, women considering childbearing need to consider their own actual situation comprehensively. In addition, 34 year old women also need to consider the limited time of childbearing age, consult professional doctors in time, and reasonably arrange the birth plan.

Summary

To sum up, although 35 years old and above are considered as elderly mothers, there are many factors that need to be considered comprehensively to determine whether childbirth at the age of 34 is considered as elderly. From the aspects of physical condition, pregnancy and childbirth risk, pregnancy probability and social environment, although there are certain risks and impacts in some aspects, women aged 34 still have good fertility. Therefore, although the birth at the age of 34 is not completely an elder birth, women should assess their physical conditions and risks when considering the birth plan, and seek medical advice in a timely manner.
