A woman’s age affects her fertility

Age is no barrier to achieving many things. But it can reduce the chance of a woman getting pregnant and having a healthy baby. A woman’s age is the single most important factor affecting her fertility.


Fertility is ageist

Age is the single most important factor affecting your fertility and your chances of having a child.

Women are born with all the eggs they will ever have. As a woman ages, her eggs age with her, diminishing in quantity and quality.

Age is not something we can control. But if you want a baby or another baby, and you’re in a relationship, you can have a conversation with your partner sooner rather than later.

The father’s age can also impact on chance of conception, time to pregnancy, risk of miscarriage and the health of the child.


The facts about women, age and fertility

As a woman ages, it takes longer to conceive and the risk of not being able to get pregnant increases. Also, the risk of miscarriage, and complications in pregnancy and childbirth, increase.

Shugavee:
tuface marriage is nothing to emulate, Her dream guy might be a cheat but not mine,.It's never happening to me.

See what I've been saying about these old nairaland cargoes?

Madam its been more than 5 years you have been 'advising' us on nairaland yet you are single. More than 5 years telling us what you can & cannot tolerate in a man yet you are lonely till this day.

Hundreds of nairaland women get married weekly - the same women you claim to 'advice'.

Madam advisor, why can't you apply your own method & get married?

Stop disturbing us with it. We don't want to know.


You are over 30 and all you do is come online & rant in the romance section.

Move over! We're sick & tired of seeing your type here. Your mates are making plans with their husbands right now.

We need younger fresh blood to start talking here not frustrated evening newspapers.

Your time is past.

So i stepped on this big scorpion this night... Thank God i was wearing slippers... Anoda chance at life.... Be good do good

Stop being diabolical.

That's just pocohantas trying to escape from her hiding place.

MISSCONGENIALITY:
When you quote people like that guy and they give you such a reply, don't quote again. Their problem is beyond nairaland. Ignore and read more stupid comments from people who don't ha e sense and don't even want to go anywhere close to having sense.
Don't go wasting your time on him

Weekly newspaper spotted

When we say they have nothing to offer asides sex, they get violent.

Why are their problems always centred around sex?



Women are natural born cheats - just like pocohantas

I say rip that butthole to shreds. If it was me, I'd beg her, invite her over to make up and tear that asshole open again!

Pained evening newspapers everywhere on this thread
