William and Kate Ideal Age to Have Children
William-Kate, Wedding Prince William and Kate Middleton seize the attention of many people worldwide, including among obstetricians. William and Kate get married at the age considered ideal, so it is not advisable to delay pregnancy. The couple together 29 years of age, even though the new William 29 years old next June. Hackensack University of obstetrician, Dr. Many Alvarez assess the ideal age for Kate and William to soon have children.
This is the ideal time to have baby, especially if they plan to have children more than one child, said Dr. Manny Alvarez, who is also Adjunct Professor of Obstetrics and Giecologi at New York University School of Medicine in New York City.
According to Dr. Alvarez has a child may be scary for newlyweds, but for couples who have been dating for years though. But medically, Dr. Alvarez suggested to Kate soon have children.
Why Kate should soon have children?
For a woman, aged 26 to 33 years is the peak period of fertility. After 35 years of age, women tend to experience more complications with the hormone and ovulation, resulting in an increased risk associated with fertility, says Dr. Alvarez.
According to Dr. Alvarez, there are a number of variables that contribute to the decline in female fertility after the age of 35 years, is as follows:
1.Decrease in the number of eggs.
2.Impairment of health eggs.
3.Decrease in cervical fluid.
4.The existence of the development of other medical conditions associated with age, as ndometriosis, high blood pressure or diabetes, which can interfere with conception.
In addition, more Dr. Alvarez, a woman in the fertile years has a certain probability when the first pregnancy miscarried, and the risk will increase with increasing age.
From the groom, the number and quality of sperm as well as Prince William is currently being evaluated at the optimal point. Later if it is over the age of 35 years, the number and quality of sperm a man will be reduced dramatically which is about 50 percent.
Another reason for Kate and William to soon have a child is, at a young age they have not been too much to think of financial problems and domestic conflicts. Various studies, the stress caused these problems can also reduce fertility.
Not to mention there are other factors associated with stress, which can also affect fertility. This includes financial stress, career and relationships. Of course, I do not think that this couple (William-Kate) is concerned with some problems, said Dr. Alvarez.
Considering the various factors described above, Dr Alvares assess no reason for them to delay pregnancy. If there are no problems with the reproductive system, predicts Dr. Alvarez recommends that once the couple soon had its slowest month of May 2012.
