How safe for women having children in their 50s?

In spite of the fact that science has settled the best time frame a lady ought to have infants to be somewhere around 26 and 36 years, more ladies are having youngsters near menopausal age. This period, medicinal specialists have said, ensures that mother and kid are healthy, particularly the lady, who needs to rapidly recover after the difficulty of pregnancy and labor.

Because of an assortment of reasons, in any case, it is turning into a pattern for a few ladies to defer pregnancy till they are in their 40s and even 50s. In any case, how protected and sound is this for both mother and kid? Is it a positive improvement for the general public, particularly considering the generational crevice?

Authenticating that it is better for ladies to have youngsters early, Dr. Oseyi Okiawele, Senior Registrar, division of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Benin Teaching Hospital, said the best regenerative results are found in ladies having youngsters somewhere around 24 and 30 years.

"This is a period, when richness is at its pinnacle," he clarified. "Furthermore, there is a lessened occurrence of unfavorable result compounded by unending restorative conditions, for example, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and chromosomal anomalies like Down's disorder.

"Industrialisation and urbanization have, in any case, prompted to ladies deferring marriage and labor with a specific end goal to propel their instruction or profession. In this manner, numerous more ladies are having kids sometime down the road. Already, it was extremely uncommon for ladies to have youngsters in their 50's. Be that as it may, with the approach of Artificial Reproductive Techniques, ladies can now have youngsters even after menopause with the utilization of medications and giver gametes (eggs and sperm) from others."

Okiawele said it is workable for ladies in their 50's to have fit as a fiddle kids, however that there is an expanded danger of chromosomal variations from the norm, particularly from common pregnancies, where their own "maturing" eggs are utilized.

He said: "The ladies are additionally at hazard. The more established individuals get, the more probable they are to have such endless therapeutic conditions as hypertension and diabetes mellitus, which may compound in pregnancy and may likewise, exacerbates the result of pregnancy. There is additionally a danger of inconveniences from ripeness methodology, which could, be that as it may, be minimized in skillful and experienced hands. Various pregnancies, similar to twins and triplets, are wanted by many couples to augment the advantages of this costly system, however this accompanies its own particular dangers for the mother, incorporating pallor in pregnancy, preterm work and conveyance and expanded hospitalization for bed rest among others.

"Each lady mulling over pregnancy in her 50's ought to measure the dangers and advantages. Those ladies, who don't have any youngsters, might need to have a tyke to call their own. This is particularly imperative in a general public like our own, where there is a high premium set on youngsters in marriage. Those ladies who as of now have youngsters might be in an ideal situation not having more kids at cutting edge ages, due to the expanded horribleness and unfriendly result."

Dr. Nwogbo Chioma, a restorative specialist at St. Mary's Catholic Hospital, Isolo, said: "a lady getting pregnant at 50 is a high-hazard wander, rather than a more youthful individual. The tendons, joints and pelvic organs of a more established individual, which ought to help conveyance, would all have turned out to be powerless. In this way, ordinary conveyance is most circumstances a no-no for such people. There are likewise expanded odds of difficulties because of the age. The more established lady won't be as solid or as imperative as a more youthful individual, and this could bring about confusions for the child (fetal misery), with the mother winding up with extreme seeping, since she is not ready to push.

"Correspondingly, throughout the pregnancy, the mother can have a great deal of inconveniences, including hypertension, diabetes and epilepsy. The kid can be influenced with chromosomal variations from the norm (Down disorder and diabetes.

"It could be more secure, if the mother is in her 30's, the high hazard begins from 38 years. In this way, for ladies in their 50's to get pregnant is a high hazard and shouldn't be supported. We realize that ladies are getting hitched late in light of the fact that they need to accomplish a considerable measure vocation shrewd. The general make-up of the mother assumes a part in guaranteeing safe pregnancy.

"It is, accordingly, prudent that ladies who are getting more seasoned and moving toward menopause, yet who still longing to have infants, ought to solidify their eggs, so they can have babies when they are prepared. Nobody would have the capacity to differentiate, when the IVF procedure is finished. Ladies, who are menopausal can do IVF, by getting eggs from more youthful young ladies and combining such with their spouses' sperm and they can then convey the pregnancy, nobody will know. Be that as it may, this ought to be maintained a strategic distance from, however much as could be expected, on the grounds that the hazard is awfully high."
