How age affects your ability to get pregnant

Nowadays, many spouses delay in conception because of the settlement of careers and other aspects. But, chances of conception decrease significantly if it is too late because the functionality of eggs may decrease at a certain stage along with other pregnancy complications and side effects.

Why do spouses want late conception?

·                Late marriage

·                Too much consciousness about career

·                Lack of mutual understanding between spouses

·                Financial insolvency

Proper time for conception:

The best time for conception for women is after 20 years of age and up to 30 years of age because reproductive capacity starts lessening after this period of time along with possibility of different pregnancy complications.

Reasons for complications in late conception:

·                The number and quality of eggs a woman is born with starts declining after 30 years of age. So, pregnancy gets beset with complications after 30 years.

·                An egg releases from the ovary of an adult woman each month. Although up to 45 years of age can be an acceptable limit for pregnancy, women starts losing their reproductive capacity after 35 years of age because their ovulation faces complications with the decrease in the number of active eggs.

·                With the aging process, the number of mature eggs decreases. So, it becomes difficult to have the required amount of mature eggs fertilized with male sperm.

·                Aged women often face issues with cervical mucus. As a woman ages, the pH level of the cervical fluid in her uterus reduces.

·                Many women face menopause along with ovulation at the age of 40.

·                Menstruation process becomes irregular with the number of eggs decreasing and irregular ovulation.

·                As a woman ages, her fallopian tube may get blocked due to infection.

·                The aging process may be responsible for obesity in many women ultimately resulting in pregnancy complications.

·                Aging causes different health issues like diabetes, high blood pressure and uterus issues which decrease fertility power and triggers risk of abortion.

·                Due to aging, chromosomal abnormality in the egg cells becomes apparent, which gradually decreases capacity for fertilization. Many women give birth to crippled children due to this issue.

Conclusion:

Are you planning to conceive after settling your career? It is not at all a good thing to get yourself always confined in your career. Remember that pregnancy after 30 years of age is not only unsafe but also a reason for a lot of health hazards like reduction of fertility capacity which may jeopardize your conjugal life.
