Key points of pregnancy preparation for the elderly

Professional doctors can provide detailed pregnancy preparation guidance for expectant mothers, including adjusting their physical condition, promoting pregnancy methods, preventing pre pregnancy diseases, etc. Prospective mothers can choose to go to formal maternal and child health care hospitals for physical examination and consultation, including Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Fudan University Affiliated Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, etc.

Elderly pregnant women need to supplement adequate nutrition and vitamins to improve the probability of pregnancy. In the preparatory stage, expectant mothers can get enough nutrition by increasing their dietary intake, such as eating more foods rich in folic acid, iron, protein, etc.
In addition, expectant mothers can also choose to take some pre pregnancy vitamins, such as folic acid, vitamin E and lutein. These vitamins can improve the quality of eggs and increase the probability of pregnancy.
