In addition, older pregnant women are more likely to have pregnancy complications, such as hypertension, diabetes, premature delivery, etc.

Older childbearing also increases the risk of female childbirth.

2. Psychological aspects

The elderly childbearing will also have a certain impact on women's mental health. For many women, pregnancy and childbirth are an important life event, and childbirth at an advanced age may bring them more anxiety and pressure. Women often face concerns about their children's health, and worry that their age will affect the development and health of the fetus. In addition, the elderly childbearing will also increase the risk of postpartum depression and mood fluctuations for women.

3. Social aspects

Older childbearing will also have an impact on women's social health. In modern society, women's role is not limited to childbirth, but also to assume multiple roles such as family, career and social interaction. Older childbearing may have a certain impact on women's career development, because it requires a longer time and energy to take care of children. In addition, elderly childbearing may also lead to social restrictions for women, because their lives and interests may be different from those of their peers.

4. Economic aspects

Older childbearing will also have a significant impact on women's economic health. A lot of time and money are needed to support and educate children. For women who have given birth at an advanced age, they need to make a balance between career and children, which may have certain restrictions on their career development and economic income. In addition, because older women need more medical care and reproductive risk management, their medical expenditure will also increase.
