Summary

Pregnancies occurring in advanced maternal age (AMA) have become more common over the last few decades for a variety of reasons. Prominent contributor to this trend are the significant advancement in assisted reproductive technology (ART) and the growing accessibility to egg donation. Delaying having children is generally associated with other variables, such as the availability of various forms of contraception, which have decreased the number of unintended births and given women more autonomy over when they choose to become pregnant. In addition, from a socioeconomic standpoint, greater education and career options for women are major contributors to this phenomenon. Women with postsecondary education are especially affected by this issue since they are more likely to miss out on professional opportunities, money, and social standing when they become mothers. Studies show that women with a tertiary level of education stay pregnant later in life, compared to women with a lower level of education. Moreover, severe economic volatility throughout the early adult years, delays in the establishment of partnerships and marriages, and the shift from family homes to independent living all serve to worsen the tendency. In this investigation, we will seek, with a critical eye, to evaluate the implications of a pregnant woman in AMA and her outcomes, trying to highlight all the possible complications and problems of a pregnancy in AMA, with an evaluation of a big volume of AMA women in pregnancy and at delivery.
