Age and Infertility

Fertility in women peak in their early twenties, when conception during any cycle is at it's highest. When they hit their thirties, the probability of conceiving decreases, taking longer to conceive. The risk of miscarriage, genetic abnormalities and other health problems also increases.

Mass media has lead us to believe that. That is NOT TRUE. Over the course of the last 30-40 years, the patterns of childbearing have changed dramatically. More than 20 percent of women now wait until they are 35 before having their first child.

This dramatic change in childbearing pattern is due to many women going for higher education, professional careers and aspirations of being independent and financially stable.

Outstanding advances in medicine has played a huge role. We are now living much longer and having children in our thirties and forties. For the majority of women who delay starting a family until the mid thirties, everything turns out fine and they are blessed with the children they hope for.

Men have always had the ability to remain fertile. They are fertile from puberty onwards and for the rest of their lives. Unfortunately women do not have such a luxury. Women are born with all their eggs and as cells age, so do the eggs, becoming less viable and fewer in number.

A women's ovaries and eggs respond negatively to inferior nutrition, stress and toxins. But they respond positively to a healthy, pure lifestyle.

For both men and women, stress and poor lifestyle choices can impact fertility. Keeping yourselves healthy and active will increase your chance of conceiving when you both decide the time is right.

Chapter 6 in "The Fertility Plan" explains and talks about treating age related fertility, including diet and lifestyle choices.
