Adverse effects of elderly childbearing on women's bodies
With the social progress and the change of people's attitudes towards marriage and family, the elderly childbearing is becoming a trend. However, the elderly childbearing has certain adverse effects on women's bodies. This article will elaborate on the adverse effects of elderly childbearing on women's bodies from four aspects.
Increased physiological burden
The fertility of women decreases with age. The fertility of women over 35 years old decreased significantly due to the degeneration of ovarian function. Therefore, the elderly childbearing is a greater physiological challenge for women. Problems such as difficulty in embryo implantation and susceptibility to infection caused by advanced age will increase women's discomfort in early pregnancy, increase complications during pregnancy and risk of clinical medical management.
In addition, assisted pregnancy treatment, such as in vitro fertilization and IVF, is needed in the process of elderly childbearing, which will cause a certain burden on women's bodies. The use of drugs and the process of treatment may cause women to suffer from hormone dependent diseases, pregnancy complications, etc.
In addition, the risk of fertility and multiple pregnancy at an advanced age increases, which may lead to problems such as intrauterine growth retardation and chromosome abnormalities. For women who have entered menopause, menopause syndrome may have adverse effects on pregnancy and childbirth.
Increased psychological pressure
Older childbearing is often accompanied by psychological pressure. The social concept, family pressure and desire for successful childbirth that women face will bring additional psychological burden to women. The difficulty and uncertainty of childbearing at an advanced age may make women feel anxious, depressed and frustrated. In particular, women may feel more psychological pressure when they fail to conceive after many efforts.
In addition, elderly childbearing may also cause women to worry about the health of future children and their own parenting ability. Such concerns may cause women to become more nervous and anxious in the process of pregnancy and childcare, thus affecting their physical and mental health.
Influence family, career and social circle
Older childbearing may have a certain negative impact on women's family, career and social circle. Women may need to give up their jobs or reduce their working hours temporarily due to the long gestation and childcare process after they have experienced the elderly childbearing, thus causing certain limitations to their career development.
At the same time, elderly childbearing will also bring burden to families. Women need to spend more time and energy to take care of their children, which may lead them to spend less time in social activities, thus having a certain impact on the development of the social circle.
May cause more health problems
Older childbearing may bring a series of health problems. Women are more likely to suffer from pregnancy induced hypertension, diabetes, cholestasis and other diseases after giving birth at an advanced age. From a physiological point of view, elderly childbearing increases the risk of women suffering from postpartum depression and menopause syndrome.
In addition, elderly childbearing may also have an impact on women's breast health. The study found that there was a certain correlation between the elderly childbearing and the risk of breast disease. Breast disease will not only affect women's health, but also may adversely affect the effect of breastfeeding.
Summary
Older childbearing may have many adverse effects on women's health, including increased physiological burden, increased psychological pressure, impact on family, career and social circle, and more health problems. Therefore, women need to comprehensively weigh the advantages and disadvantages, consult doctors, and make wise decisions according to their actual situation when considering the elderly childbearing.
