Can I still have children at the age of 44?

Patient's question:

My boyfriend is 20 years younger than me and is planning to marry me this year. I am 44 years old, and we are planning to have a child. At this age, we can't afford to wait any longer. We have been trying to conceive for a month now, but haven't gotten pregnant yet. We have had many sexual encounters, and I wonder if it has something to do with the positions we use during sex. Could it be that the age difference between us is too great, making it impossible for our sperm and eggs to combine?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help clarify this for you. If your menstrual cycle is normal, menopause is also normal. It's only been one month since you started trying to conceive, so don't hurry. The sexual position generally has no relation to it. As long as there is semen entering the vagina, there is a possibility of conception. Stress can greatly affect the chances of getting pregnant. I suggest relaxing your mind. Additionally, it's mainly related to your age being on the higher side. The above advice is for the question "Can I still get pregnant at 44?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
