1. Childbearing age and elderly childbearing
The childbearing age of women refers to the age range suitable for pregnancy and childbirth, usually between 15 and 49 years old. In this range, women are the healthiest and most fertile. However, with the growth of women's age, their fertility will gradually decline.
Women over 35 years of age are generally considered as elderly childbearing. This is because after the age of 35, the ovarian function of women begins to decline gradually, the number of ovulations decreases, and the quality of eggs will also decline, thus increasing the difficulty of pregnancy. In addition, after the age of 35, women are more likely to suffer from some fertility related diseases, such as uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, etc., which further affects the possibility of fertility.
Therefore, childbirth of women over 35 years old is indeed a kind of elder childbirth. Compared with young women, they will face greater difficulties and risks.
2. Factors affecting elder childbearing
Although age is the most important factor, there are other factors that may have an impact on elderly childbearing.
First of all, the ovarian function and egg quality of women will decline with age, which is one of the main reasons for the difficulty of childbearing in the elderly.
Secondly, suffering from some reproductive system diseases will also affect pregnancy and delivery. For example, diseases such as uterine fibroids and ovarian cysts can affect the nutrition supply of the uterus and the implantation of embryos, resulting in abortion or premature delivery.
In addition, the social pressure faced may also have an impact on elderly childbearing. Many women over 35 years old may have made higher achievements in their careers, but because of procrastination and increased life pressure, it is difficult for them to balance the contradiction between work and family, thus affecting the decision-making of elderly childbearing.
3. Risks and precautions of elder childbearing
Older women face more risks in childbirth than younger women. With the increase of age, the success rate of childbirth decreases and the risk of abortion increases. Women over 35 years of age also have a higher risk of chromosomal abnormalities, such as Down syndrome.
Therefore, if a woman plans to give birth at an advanced age, she should have a comprehensive physical examination before pregnancy, including ovarian function and uterine condition. If there are related problems, the doctor may suggest further treatment to improve the pregnancy success rate.
In addition, older pregnant women also need to pay more attention to their own health. They should keep good eating habits, eat balanced nutrition, and avoid overwork and tension. Periodically carry out prenatal examination, pay close attention to the development of the fetus, and timely deal with possible complications.
4. Summary
Childbearing of women over 35 years of age can be classified as elder childbearing. Age is the main influencing factor. With the increase of age, fertility gradually decreases, and difficulties and risks will also increase. In addition to age, factors such as ovarian function, reproductive system diseases and social pressure may also affect the elderly childbearing. Compared with young women, older women face more risks in childbirth. They need comprehensive physical examination, and pay attention to their own health and fetal development.
Therefore, for women over 35 years old, we should weigh the advantages and disadvantages when considering childbearing, and conduct comprehensive consultation and evaluation. Different people have different situations. Some people may successfully conceive and give birth, but others may face some difficulties and risks. Health and happiness are the most important. Women should make wise choices according to their own conditions.
