Does 35 years old and over count as the problem of senior childbearing?
With the development of society and the improvement of women's status, more and more women choose late marriage and late childbearing. However, for women over 35 years old, childbirth may face some difficulties. This article will discuss this problem from the aspects of physiology, psychology, society and economy.
Physiological aspects
First of all, the physiological conditions of women over 35 years old have slightly declined, causing difficulties in childbirth. The number and quality of female eggs decrease with age, and the viability of eggs will also decrease, thus increasing the difficulty of pregnancy. In addition, women over 35 are prone to gynecological problems, such as uterine fibroids and endocrine disorders, which will affect pregnancy and smooth delivery.
Secondly, women over 35 years old face a higher risk of pregnancy and childbirth. With the growth of age, the probability of suffering from chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, etc. will also increase, and these diseases will have a negative impact on pregnancy and postpartum health. In addition, postpartum recovery has become more difficult, requiring more time and energy.
However, the development of science and technology also provides hope for women over 35 years old to have children. Nowadays, many hospitals provide IVF and other assisted reproductive technologies, which can help women who cannot conceive naturally due to physiological reasons realize their mother's dream.
Psychological aspects
In addition to physical difficulties, women over 35 may also face some psychological difficulties. Women who marry late and have children late often feel the urgency and anxiety of time. They may worry that they spend too much time on their career and miss the best time to give birth, and they may also worry that the increase in age will have a negative impact on children's education and growth.
In addition, for women over 35 years old, many people may have been married for many years before this, and have a certain stable life and emotional foundation with their husbands. However, late marriage may also lead to disagreement between the two on fertility, which will affect the relationship and harmony between husband and wife.
Therefore, women over 35 years old need to seriously consider their psychological preparation and family status, as well as communication and understanding with their husbands when considering childbearing.
Social aspects
At the social level, women over 35 years old face fertility problems mainly from traditional ideas and social pressure. The traditional concept holds that the best childbearing age for women is between 20 and 30 years old, while women over 35 years old are considered as late marriage and late childbearing, and will be regarded as "elderly women", vulnerable to external criticism and discrimination.
In addition, the society gives relatively little support and attention to late marriage and late childbirth women. The dual pressure of family and work makes it difficult for women over 35 years old to balance their time and energy in life and childbirth, and the lack of relevant policies and system guarantees makes it more difficult for them.
However, as the society pays more attention to women's rights and interests, more and more people gradually begin to realize the plight of women over 35 years of age, and pay more attention to promoting the reform of relevant policies and systems to provide more support and convenience for these women.
Economic aspects
Finally, women over the age of 35 also face certain economic pressure in childbirth. The economic situation of these women is usually relatively good, but the cost of children's education and support also increases accordingly. Moreover, because they are older, they may need to take into account their own professional development while their children grow up, so they need more economic security and support.
Therefore, women over 35 years old need to consider their own physiological status, psychological preparation, family status, social concepts and economic capacity when considering childbearing. Choosing the right time to actively seek the help of medical technology also requires social understanding and support.
Summary
To sum up, there are some difficulties and obstacles for women over 35 years old to have children. From the perspective of physiology, psychology, society and economy, these difficulties are mainly reflected in the decline of egg quality, the increase of pregnancy and childbirth risk, the increase of psychological pressure, the lack of social concepts and support, and economic pressure. However, with the development of science and technology and the change of social concepts, these difficulties can also be alleviated through appropriate timing, medical technology support and social policy reform. Most importantly, women over 35 need to consider their own situation comprehensively, make rational decisions, and choose the best plan for their own and family happiness.
