With the growth of age, older women are facing a series of challenges related to fertility. Due to the change of physiological function, the possibility of intrauterine growth retardation and premature delivery increases, which brings risks to maternal and infant health. These problems will be discussed in detail below, and how to strengthen prenatal monitoring to ensure the safety of mother and baby.

complication

Complications of elderly women need to be paid attention to. Pregnancy-induced hypertension, preeclampsia and other diseases should be prevented as early as possible. The decrease of elasticity of joint ligament tissue also increases the difficulty of delivery, which may lead to dystocia and postpartum anemia.

Production problem

The production problems faced by elderly women can not be ignored. Due to pelvic calcification, the labor process may be prolonged or difficult to produce. This not only increases the risk of maternal complications, but also may pose a threat to the fetus, such as neonatal injury, asphyxia or the increase of deformed children. However, with the progress of medical technology, the safety and efficiency of caesarean section have been significantly improved.

Abortion risk

Older women also face a higher risk of miscarriage. Aging means that the possibility of genetic material damage increases, thus affecting the normal development of embryos. Therefore, it is very important for the elderly women to make full pre-pregnancy preparation and regular prenatal examination.
