Older childbearing is good for breasts
With the change of fertility concept and the improvement of medical conditions, more and more women decide to give birth at an advanced age. Although the traditional concept believes that elder childbearing has a negative impact on women's health, in fact, there are some benefits of elder childbearing, especially the impact on breast health. The following four aspects will be elaborated in detail: breast tissue status, hormone level, breast cancer prevention and the relationship between mother and baby.
1. Breast tissue status
Breast is one of the most sensitive organs of women. With the growth of age, breast tissue will gradually degenerate. However, the aging birth can delay the degeneration process of breast tissue and keep the breast in a better state. Ruijin Hospital found that the density of breast tissue of elderly women who gave birth is relatively high. The glands in the breast are plump, and the breast fiber tissue is closely arranged. This state helps to improve the movement and excretion function of the breast and maintain breast health.
In addition, the development of the mammary gland mainly depends on the role of progesterone. The mammary gland cells of elderly women experience a longer period of estrogen stimulation, resulting in relatively plump mammary glands, which is conducive to the secretion of postpartum milk.
2. Hormone level
The hormone level of elderly women with childbearing is relatively high, especially the level of estrogen. Estrogen is one of the important hormones for maintaining breast health, which can promote the development of breast and increase the sensitivity of breast to breast gland and milk secretion. Therefore, the mammary glands of the elderly women who give birth are more sensitive to the secretion of milk, and their mammary glands are in better health.
In addition, the protective effect of estrogen on bone can not be ignored. The study found that the bone density of the elderly women who gave birth is relatively high, which helps prevent osteoporosis and protect breast health.
3. Prevention of breast cancer
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women, and elderly childbearing can reduce the risk of breast cancer. A study by Ruijin Hospital shows that women who give birth before the age of 35 have a higher risk of breast cancer; After the age of 35, the risk of breast cancer will be significantly reduced. This is related to the breast status of the elderly. The breast tissue is relatively healthy, and the risk of breast cancer is low.
In addition, older women who give birth tend to pay more attention to improving their health and lifestyle, such as maintaining healthy eating habits, increasing physical exercise, etc. These good habits also help prevent breast cancer.
4. Contact between mother and baby
Women who have given birth at an advanced age generally have a more mature and stable economic and psychological state, and can give better care and companionship to their babies. Breast feeding is an important way of communication between mother and child, and also helps to strengthen the emotional connection and intimacy between mother and child. Research shows that breastfeeding can reduce the risk of breast disease for mothers and further promote breast health.
Therefore, elderly childbearing has certain benefits for breast, including the improvement of breast tissue status, the increase of hormone levels, the reduction of breast cancer risk, and the strengthening of the relationship between mother and baby. Nevertheless, women should also consider personal physical conditions, family conditions and other factors when choosing to give birth at an advanced age, and make decisions under the guidance of doctors.
Summary
Older childbearing has many benefits for breasts. On the one hand, the elderly fertility can maintain a good state of breast tissue and delay the degeneration of breast tissue; On the other hand, the elderly fertility can increase hormone levels, promote milk secretion and breast health; In addition, elderly childbearing can also reduce the risk of breast cancer and strengthen the relationship between mother and baby. However, it is still necessary to carefully consider personal conditions and doctors' suggestions when choosing to give birth at an advanced age to ensure the health of mother and child.
