Patient's question:
My sister has a daughter who is 15 years old. Currently, due to special reasons, she needs to have another child. She is in good health and has no diseases.Could she still get pregnant at this age? Will she be able to give birth to a healthy child if she becomes pregnant?
Doctor's answer:
It is completely possible to conceive in one's 40s without having gone through menopause. The general peak fertility period is between the ages of 20 and 35, so it is still important to be cautious. As one gets older, children's immunity and other aspects may be slightly weaker, but this is not absolute. In the past, there have been cases of people giving birth at the age of 50, so it is relatively speaking.
