Fertility after 35 and 40
Women all over the world are deferring
having their children until they are 35 or even 40. There are many reasons
for making this decision and these reasons are usually very sensible.
Unfortunately, however, delaying having children until you are older
increases all the risk factors. Fertility itself starts to decline
after age 35 and at the same time the risk of miscarriage increases. There
are also increased risks for your baby.
In order to help women
in their 30's and 40's make informed decisions about their fertility and
reproduction, I have written an e-book called
Starting your
family after 30
Was my age the cause
of my miscarriage?
Your age has a major effect on your risk of miscarriage. If you are aged 35
or older you are at much greater risk than your younger 'sisters'. However
age interacts with other lifestyle factors and as you age you need to place
greater importance on optimising your lifestyle. Smoking, for example,
probably won't affect your fertility when you are younger but it will
certainly make it very difficult for you to conceive normally when you are
35 or older.
There are many different 'habits' that can affect your chances of having a
normal healthy baby and you need to understand what these are and correct
them. You might not even know that these habits are bad - not
because you are ignorant but because many things are never discussed. Could
you have imagined that the way you clean your teeth could affect your baby?
The easiest way to find out all
about lifestyle and miscarriage, is to answer my on-line
questionnaire
& personal report that you will find at
http://www.ez-fertility.com.au. There is a
relatively small charge for answering the questionnaire and receiving your
detailed report but this unique service - which is based on the very latest
research - could save you heartache and a great deal
of money in the long run.
Interaction of age and bad habits
My recent research has just revealed that some lifestyle
habits don't matter much or at all when you are younger but matter a great
deal when you are older than 35. Like many other older women, you might look
back on your life at 20 when you felt so much more fertile despite poor diet
and bad habits. Sadly this is the reality of ageing. But the news is not all
bad. If you either read
Starting your
family after 30 or undertake the questionnaire on
http://www.ez-fertility.com.au,
then make your 'lifestyle resolutions', you will find that your body will
respond quite quickly to the changes.
Will supplements increase
fertility and decrease the risk of miscarriage?
Up to now there has been no thorough research on this matter
however there has been considerable research that indicates which
supplements might help. This research and the supplements are described in
my book
Starting your
family after 30.
