On a par with a lot of advantages of conception and birth of a child a woman after the age of 35 years, there are some disadvantages of this phenomenon, which is worth considering, too.
Often in women after 30 years begin to appear and exacerbated many chronic diseases, which previously could not even be felt. And at the age of 40 years is difficult to find a woman who would not have suffered at least some illness or disease. All this is reflected in the level of immunity which affects many processes in the female body.
With regard to women's health, after 35 years, the number of ovulations a woman is significantly reduced, and therefore the possibility to conceive a child is also reduced. Oocyte aging and hormonal changes affect the uterine receptivity. That is why the number of miscarriages and ectopic pregnancy in women after age 35 significantly increases.
In addition, all these female body aging factors can affect the health of the fetus, if conception does happen. oocyte aging can induce chromosomal changes that increase the risk of abnormalities, including Down's syndrome in children. Statistics confirm this possibility, because young mothers who gave birth at the age of 20-23 years, 700-800 children are born healthy child with this pathology. Whereas the woman is closer to 40 years, the ratio is one sick child only 120-150 healthy children.
Due to the limited capacity of the female body after 35 years, and reduced immunity late pregnancy may held from complications, which are expressed in late toxicosis, swelling, fetal distress, premature birth and et al. These and other aspects of late pregnancy often lead to the fact that women make a cesarean section. Such a medical solution can also be caused by weakness of the muscles and joints of low elasticity of women after 35 years.
If you still birth will take place in a natural way, they may be delayed in time, will end soft tissue injuries and fractures of the perineum, which is also due to age-related changes in the body women. Another unpleasant aspect of life later gave birth mothers may be a violation of lactation, it will cause the child's transition to artificial feeding.
