Advanced Maternal Age refers to pregnancy among older women which, compared to younger women, face increased risks for miscarriage, premature labor, high blood pressure and gestational diabetes. Maternal age affects the number of eggs that can be released by the ovaries and fertilized to form a healthy baby. As a woman ages, the number of healthy eggs significantly decreases. Simultaneously, her risks of forming chromosomal abnormalities which, for instance, leads to the birth of a baby with Down’s Syndrome, also increase with age.
Women who plan to get pregnant at age 35 and beyond are specially advised to consult with an OB Gyn and consider available options for pregnancy at advanced maternal age.
