The Influence of Old Childbearing on Mother's Body
In recent years, with the development of social economy and the improvement of women's liberation concept, more and more women choose to postpone childbearing, which leads to the increase of elderly childbearing. However, the impact of elderly childbearing on the mother's body has gradually attracted attention. The following will be elaborated from multiple perspectives, and the impact of elderly childbearing on the mother's body will be introduced in detail.
1. Changes in the reproductive system
Older women who give birth will generally have ovarian function decline, and the number and quality of eggs will decline. In addition, the risk of diseases such as hysteromyoma and endometriosis will also increase.
Secondly, female hormone levels will change with age. Decreased estrogen secretion leads to irregular menstrual cycle, which may lead to prolonged menstrual period or decreased menstrual volume.
In addition, older women who give birth are prone to pregnancy complications, such as pregnancy induced hypertension, pregnancy induced diabetes, etc. These complications not only bring risks to the mother's health, but also have adverse effects on the development of the fetus.
2. Physical function decline
The risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and heart disease increases with age. These chronic diseases will not only affect the mother's own health, but also may have adverse effects on the fetus. Therefore, these chronic diseases need to be paid more attention to and managed by the elderly women who give birth.
In addition, with the growth of age, women's metabolic rate will also decline, muscle strength will be weakened, bone density will be reduced, and osteoporosis and fracture will easily occur. These problems may affect physical recovery during pregnancy and after childbirth.
Women's immune system will decline with age, and their resistance will decline. This means that women who have given birth at an advanced age are more vulnerable to infection and diseases such as colds and pneumonia.
3. Increase of psychological pressure
Women who give birth at an advanced age often face higher psychological pressure. Because there is a concept in society that childbirth at an advanced age will increase the risk of children's illness, children will face difficulties in education, and it is difficult for them to assume the responsibility of taking care of children. These ideas may have a negative impact on women's mental health.
In addition, women who give birth at an advanced age often face the dual pressure of career development and family responsibilities. On the one hand, I need to take care of my children, and on the other hand, I hope to achieve something in my career. Such double pressure may make women feel tired and anxious.
4. Increased risk of pregnancy and childbirth
Women who give birth at an advanced age may face more risks during pregnancy and childbirth. As mentioned above, elderly pregnancy is prone to complications such as hypertension and diabetes. In addition, placental insufficiency, oligohydramnios, intrauterine distress and other complications are also prone to occur, increasing the risk of mothers and fetuses.
In the process of delivery, the elasticity of the birth canal will be reduced due to the age of the mother, and cesarean section and other surgical methods may be required. This will have an impact on the mother's physical recovery and the baby's nutrition absorption.
summary
To sum up, the impact of elderly childbearing on the mother's body is very obvious. From the changes in the reproductive system, the decline in physical function, the increase in psychological pressure, and the increased risk of pregnancy and childbirth, we can see that the elderly childbirth will bring a series of challenges to the mother's physical health. Therefore, women should fully understand the relevant health risks and make wise decisions under the guidance of doctors before choosing to give birth at an advanced age.
