Risk of having children after the age of 35

In modern society, more and more women choose to postpone childbearing. However, with the growth of age, the risk of female childbearing also increases. There are many potential risks in giving birth after the age of 35, from personal health to infant development, which may be affected.

1. Decreased fertility

With the growth of age, women's fertility gradually declined. After the age of 35, the ovarian function of women will gradually weaken, and the number and quality of eggs will also rapidly decrease. This makes the chances of a successful pregnancy more difficult. According to statistics, the pregnancy rate of women over 35 years old is only 10% - 15% per month, while that of women under 25 years old is as high as 20% - 25%.

In addition, the possibility of infertility among women after the age of 35 will also increase. This may be due to the decline in egg quality and changes in the environment in the uterus. Therefore, for women who have reached the age of 35, it is very important to consult a professional doctor as soon as possible to conduct a comprehensive fertility inspection and treatment.

2. Increased risk of pregnancy complications

Women who are pregnant after the age of 35 have a higher risk of pregnancy complications. For example, diseases such as hysteromyoma, endometriosis, ectopic pregnancy and gestational diabetes are at higher risk in this age group.

In addition, pregnancy complications such as pregnancy induced hypertension and placenta previa are also more common. These complications will have adverse effects on the health of mothers and infants, increasing the risk of premature delivery, fetal distress, low birth weight and other complications.

Therefore, women over 35 years old need to pay special attention to their physical conditions before and during pregnancy, carry out prenatal examination and physical examination regularly, and find and deal with potential risk factors in a timely manner.

3. Increased risk of genetic variation

With the growth of age, an important risk for women to have children after the age of 35 is that children are more likely to have gene mutations. Research shows that children born after the age of 35 have an increased risk of certain genetic diseases compared with young women.

This is because female eggs are exposed to the external environment for a long time, and the time of radiation and oxidative damage increases, leading to increased possibility of DNA damage and mutation. These mutations may be passed on to the next generation, increasing the risk of genetic diseases.

Therefore, women who have children after the age of 35 should pay special attention to the genetic problems of their children. They can consider carrying out gene testing and genetic counseling to understand the potential risks of genetic diseases carried in time and make better preparations for the health of their children.

4. Increased pressure on follow-up life and family

For women and families, childbirth after the age of 35 will face increased pressure from follow-up life and family. The late childbearing age means that women may face greater difficulties in their career and need to balance work and family.

In addition, with the growth of age, women's physical and mental recovery speed will slow down, and it will become more difficult to care for and support newborns. At the same time, the increase of parents' age difference may also have an impact on family relations and children's education.

Therefore, women who are ready to give birth after the age of 35 need to reasonably arrange their careers and families, fully communicate with their husbands, and make adequate psychological preparations to cope with possible challenges.

Summary

There are many risks in giving birth after the age of 35, including decreased fertility, increased risk of pregnancy complications, increased risk of gene mutation, and increased stress in subsequent life and family. In order to overcome these risks, women after the age of 35 should consult professional doctors in time for comprehensive fertility inspection and treatment; Pay attention to physical condition, and conduct prenatal examination and physical examination regularly; Carry out gene testing and genetic consultation to understand the potential genetic risks; Reasonably arrange career and family, fully communicate with her husband, and make adequate psychological preparations.
