Question

Women who become pregnant for the first time at a later reproductive age (35 years or older) are at risk for which complications? select all that apply.

Answer 1

Women who become pregnant for the first time at a later reproductive age such as 35 or older are more susceptible to miscarriages and their babies are more likely to be born prematurely. They are more likely to experience a stillbirth or bleeding complications. Their babies have a higher chance of suffering birth defects like r.etardation due to chromosome imbalance.

Answer 2

Preterm labor
Bleeding in the first trimester
Chromosomal anomalies
Women also have a higher risk of developing certain complications during pregnancy, such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, premature detachment of the placenta (premature separation of the placenta and uterine wall) and placenta previa (when the placenta moves to the lower part of the uterus, covering the cervix partially or completely).
