National safe maternity day
Every year on April 11, ‘National Safe Motherhood Day’ is celebrated in India, which aims to increase awareness of mothers’ health and safety in the country. In such a situation, this question often arises in the minds of many women, is it difficult to conceive after the age of 35 years? In such a situation, Dr. Shaily Sharma, a gynecologist at Claudnine Hospital in Faridabad, is telling what difficulty in conceiving after the age of 35, what should be done for safe pregnancy after 35 as well as what is the most ideal age to conceive?
Risk of conception after 35:
Fertility of women decreases with age. After the age of 30, this capacity gradually starts decreasing, and after 35 it declines rapidly. The main reason for this is the decrease in the number and quality of eggs. At birth, women have about 1 to 2 million eggs in the ovaries, which decrease with aging. After the age of 35, there may be difficulty in pregnancy due to the number of eggs and declines in quality.
Some risks may increase by conceiving after the age of 35:
Danger of miscarriage: The chances of miscarriage increase at this age.
Chromosome abnormalities: such as the risk of down syndrome is high.
Pregnancy complications: The risk of conditions such as high blood pressure, pregnancy diabetes, and pre-eclampsia increases.
Possibility of C-section: C-section is more likely at this age than normal delivery.
Ideal age of conception:
From a scientific point of view, the age of 20 to 30 years is considered ideal for conception. Fertility of women is the best in this period, and the risk of pregnancy -related complications is low. However, nowadays women are planning late motherhood for career, education, and other reasons, which is completely possible, provided they pay attention to their health and lifestyle.
Suggestions for safe conception after 35:
Pre-pronounced probe: conduct a complete health check-up before conception, including thyroid, diabetes, and blood pressure check.
Healthy lifestyle: Take a balanced diet, exercise regularly, and control stress.
Folic acid intake: Take sufficient amount of folic acid before and during pregnancy, which reduces the risk of neural tube defects in the baby.
Regular medical counseling: Consult a doctor regularly during pregnancy and conduct the necessary tests.
Prevention of harmful habits: Stay away from smoking, alcohol, and other narcotics, as they can negatively impact fertility and fetal development.
It is possible to conceive after the age of 35, but it requires special caution and planning. Women can experience safe and healthy pregnancy even at this age by adopting correct information, timely medical counseling, and healthy lifestyle.
