The Influence of Old Childbearing on Wife's Body

With the development of society and the improvement of living standards, more and more women choose to consider pregnancy and childbirth in a larger age range. However, the elderly childbearing will have some special effects on the wife's body. In the following article, we will elaborate from four aspects: reproductive system, general health, risks in pregnancy and childbirth, and resilience.

1、 Impact on reproductive system

With the growth of age, a series of physiological changes will take place in the female reproductive system. The number and quality of eggs will gradually decline, and the ovarian function will also weaken. This means that women who give birth at an advanced age tend to face greater obstacles to pregnancy. In addition, the elasticity and function of the uterus will gradually weaken, which will increase the risk of endometriosis pregnancy.

At the same time, elderly childbearing is also likely to lead to some gynecological problems, such as uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts and so on. These problems may bring some troubles to pregnancy and childbirth, and also increase the risk of surgery.

2、 Impact on overall health

Older women who give birth tend to have more systemic health problems. For example, the incidence of chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases will increase with age, and these diseases will pose certain risks to pregnancy and childbirth.

In addition, because the metabolic rate of women's body decreases with age, it is more likely to lead to weight gain and muscle loss, which may lead to excessive weight gain during pregnancy and increase the risk of complications during pregnancy.

In addition, due to the growth of age, women's bone will gradually decrease, which is easy to lead to osteoporosis. During pregnancy, the load on the bones increases, which may lead to an increased risk of fractures.

3、 Increased risk during pregnancy and childbirth

Older childbearing will increase the risk of complications during pregnancy. For example, problems such as insufficient uterine contractile function, placental dysfunction, oligohydramnios, and abnormal glucose tolerance are more common in elderly mothers. These problems may increase the incidence of premature delivery, low birth weight and other physiological problems.

In the process of delivery, elderly women may also face greater cesarean section rate. This is because the elasticity of the uterus and birth canal is weakened, which may lead to difficulties in delivery and abnormal fetal heart rate, and cesarean section is needed to ensure the safety of mother and baby.

4、 Reduction of resilience

With the growth of age, women's physical recovery ability will also decline. In the process of recovery after childbirth, elderly mothers may need a longer time to adapt to postpartum changes, such as uterine recovery, breastfeeding, body shape recovery, etc.

In addition, elderly childbearing also makes women face more care pressure. Due to older age and slow recovery, more time and energy are needed to care for the baby, which is a burden for both physical and psychological pressure.

Summary

To sum up, the elderly childbearing has a significant impact on the wife's health. It will have adverse effects on the reproductive system and general health, increase the risk of pregnancy and childbirth, and also weaken the resilience. Therefore, when deciding whether to give birth at an advanced age, women need to comprehensively consider their own physical conditions and risk factors, consult doctors and make wise decisions.
