Due to the lifestyle of new generations, women get married relatively late and consequently become pregnant after reaching 35 years old which increases the risk of harmful complications. So far, there is no clear indication of the proper age for pregnancy. But during the age of 20-30 years, a women’s body is fully developed and ready for pregnancy. After reaching 35 years old, ovaries do not fully function, which affects the physical strength of a fetus and increases pregnancy risks. In this case, women with high pregnancy risks should have a checkup to prepare for treatment as soon as possible, if any abnormality is detected. Aging mothers tend to suffer complications more often than young mothers, especially if some diseases exist in their family medical history, such as down syndrome, preeclampsia, or other underlying diseases. Mothers should visit maternal fetal medicine physicians to make a pregnancy plan and health checkup.
