The age factor: The impact of age on a woman’s fertility journey.
One of the most important elements influencing fertility is age. In women, fertility starts to decline in the early 30s, and more so after the age of 35. As the number and quality of eggs decline with getting older. The chances of getting pregnant naturally also decline with age.
For men, fertility also declines with age, but not as much as in women. The sperm count and quality may decline slightly with age, but this does not usually affect the ability to get pregnant naturally. It is advisable to contact an infertility specialist as soon as possible.
The following are some of the reasons why age affects fertility:
In women, the number and quality of eggs decline with age. This is because the ovaries start to produce fewer eggs as women get older. The eggs that are produced may also be less healthy.
The lining of the uterus becomes thinner with getting old. This makes it more difficult for an egg to implant and grow.
The risk of pregnancy complications increases with age. This includes miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, and gestational diabetes.
If you are over the age of 35 and are having trouble getting pregnant, it is important to see a doctor for evaluation. There are many treatments available to help women over 35 get pregnant, such as fertility drugs and in vitro fertilization (IVF).
