Cheat the biological clock

-

Through advances in assisted reproduction it is feasible to have a child at 40 years of age with the same chances of pregnancy and risks associated with a much younger age, such as 30 years of age. In this way you can postpone motherhood without the complications that this entails.

Below you have an index with all the points that we will discuss in this article.

Deceiving the biological clock

The technique of assisted reproduction that allows this miracle, is the vitrification of oocytes . Women who want to be mothers in the future can freeze their eggs. So that they keep the conditions intact and years later, when they want to be mothers, they use them in fertility treatments.

Delay motherhood

The main drawback of delaying motherhood is that it is more difficult to get pregnant. From the age of 35 it is much more complicated for a woman to get pregnant naturally. So it must resort to assisted reproduction and every year that passes is more complicated to achieve conception.

Age to become a mother

Many women in Spain are clear that they want to be mothers, but in the future, the main reasons for delaying pregnancy are:

  • Improve in your professional career.
  • Increase your economic stability.
  • Find the right partner with whom to create a family.
Delay motherhood

Freeze ovules

Thanks to the vitrification of oocytes it is possible to stop the time in the ovules, so that regardless of the age of the woman, her ovules are kept in the same conditions as when she froze them.

The Spanish clinics try to make women aware so they can carry out this technique. There is no age limit to preserve, but the ideal is when the woman has a good fertility, usually 30 years is a good age to preserve the ovules.

With vitrification avoids having to resort in the future to the donation of ovules, which involves a greater economic cost and also implies that the woman does not transmit their genes to their offspring.
