Patient's question:
I am already 40 years old this year, my family is relatively well-off, and we already have one child. My husband and I want to have another one. Can I still have a second child at my age?Doctor's answer:
Women over 35 fall into the category of high-risk pregnancy, but it is still possible to have children. It is recommended to undergo regular prenatal check-ups. Pregnancy requires normal ovulation in women, unobstructed fallopian tubes, a healthy uterus, and age can be a factor, but it is not a decisive one. You can have a second child, and 35 is not considered old. Before trying to conceive, it is advisable to have a pre-pregnancy check-up at the hospital to ensure safety. You can monitor ovulation at the hospital and have intercourse during the fertile period to increase the chances of pregnancy. Pay attention to your diet, eat less spicy food, more vegetables, avoid greasy food, drink more water, and do not work overtime.
