But we see married women who keep having kids even at 40 - 45 years, sometimes even 50. Why do you think it is so?


The article did not say, women in their 40s or 50s can’t get pregnant or give birth, it just stated that...the rate decreases with age!

Pls don't discourage our women, God is in control.

I think, he is just telling them to make hay while the Sun still shines.

Agree, God is still in control and their are miracles, but why wait till when one is the 50s and start to wait on God for a miracle from heaven at that point; when you can take advantage of the miracle that God have already performed...which is your reproductive prowess at young age to make it happen?

Believe me, it is a minute fraction of people who start waiting for this miracle at 50 gets it; the vast majority of them just wait on....until they are 60...70....80...90.....

St Ives, good hospital, heard their success rate on ivf is commendable,just that during the promos in most of this clinics most patients don't get as much attention as they would on regular days cos the patronage is twice or even thrice the normal . Regardless, it will be nice if they let the public know when they are having their promo through this same medium.

Nowadays even some so called young women are having trouble carrying a baby to full term.

The doctor should also discuss the difficulty in pregnancy among child brides who sometimes develop fistulas due to being too young to give birth.

Women give birth later in life all the time and always have. We all know of families with a large age gap between the eldest and youngest sibling.

I understand there is a higher risk of downs syndrome with less healthy eggs but when is the last time you heard of a downs baby being born?

Even oyibo people that taught this guy all these don't believe in this shit. See women giving birth in their 40's all over the place and you still spread this shit so that Africans will continue to breed children like rats just because of one biological clock tale.

That is how some women out of desperation will get married to an slowpoke all in the name of ticking biological clock. Do you know there is also an increase in the number of women in their 20's who can't become pregnant until in their 30's?


Eat right and maintain good health.


The doctor is actually right and was fair enough. He used statistics to explain the topic. Yes, women above 40 procreate, but what's the percentage compared to women below 30?

There's nothing wrong with what he said, scientifically.

koyyes:
Men and women who marry in their 30's have a higher chance of sustaining happy marriages.

Women who give birth in their 30's mostly give birth to extremely intelligent children.


These are known facts but because Africans love negative news, you will all continue to make bad decisions and increase poverty and pedophilia in any way possible.

I pity you.

Happiness is subjective. Moreover, where did you get the information that women above 30 procreate intelligent children?

Quack doctor. Misogynistic waste. One of the ways Nigerian men uses to make women feel they have a biological clock while forgetting that men’s sp..erm become watery after 35 yrs making them equally infertile.

The doctor mentioned sperm quality being a reason. Did you actually read the article?


@Topic: The doctor is correct regarding his explanation on fertility and these have been confirmed scientifically. However, my issue is that he equates being married to being eligible for procreation. Although, he mentioned other causes of infertility other than age, one can still get married at a younger age and still be infertile.

That is how some came and said women of child bearing age who don't have sex will get fibroid. Rubbish talk! Na marketing strategy to sell more condom or std drug abi wetin?
They just keep feeding you people rubbish and you all absorb all that in your head as if your head has been empty all these while.

I will advice ladies to stop taking contraceptives like tom tom. That is one of the things increasing infertility if you don't know.
These same doctors give you these without educating you then they come out and say shiit.

Eat right and maintain good health.

well said, some doctors need to update their knowledge. I married late by mid thirties not by choice of cause. I had hyperactive thyroid and was treating here right here in Lagos. The doctor started talking me into bringing my hubby to start fertility treatment, I ignored him and continued with my drug. Once my thyroid level balanced and came back to normal, we started trying and I got pregnant at the second try at 36. At 38 I got pregnant at first try and had another baby. My hand was full and I decided to space a little but that was not gonna be as I got pregnant by mistake. I thought I was in my free period and I'm 39. There some Ladies much younger than me that got married about same time as me and are still trying up to date. I know a woman at forty five that just had her baby without Ivf. My sis had her last child at forty three and not ivf. Doctor is just trying to sell market

I hope you have a solid plan for these children, not just having them but bringing them up....financing their school fees, housing them, clothing them, healthand insurance provision and emergencies should you get sick or die early. Then also considering their economic prospect when they grow up, the country's economic prospect etc.
