How old is too old for a woman to make babies?

From Google to you.

Declining Egg Quantity and Quality: A woman is born with all the eggs she will ever have, and their number and quality decrease over time. By age 45, getting pregnant naturally is unlikely.

Menopause: Menopause, the natural cessation of menstruation, typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, with the average age being 51 in the United States. Once a woman has reached menopause, she can no longer get pregnant naturally.

Exactly, the egg quality gets worse so maybe an older lady should abstain…

40s I think but you hear stories of someone giving birth in 50s

[Charliefretz329]

I’ve heard the risk of birth defects is too high

[Jeff51]

Could be but still does happen

[Charliefretz329]

True

[Jeff51]

Im. sure she knows the risks.

All depends on when she hits menopause usually 50-60. Some women have bad hormones issues and get menopause earlier tho

[Charliefretz329]

True, but when should a woman avoid trying to get pregnant

[Apple1996]

Anytime she doesn't want a kid. Personally I would not want to be that old of a parent

[Apple1996]

I think past like 40-45 men and women shouldn't be having kids

[Charliefretz329]

I tend to agree…

Last I heard the oldest was 67. My mom didn't hit menopause until 57.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Whenever she runs out of eggs, so probably when she’s menopausal

Medicine has developed so much now that even 60-year-old women can give birth. It is more important for women who believe they can be good mothers to give birth.

My mom delivered me not long before she turned 45, and I was her only child.

40, afterwards there is a high risk of nondisjunction, trisomy 21

[Dongie]

That's up to mother nature! Called menopause!

[Dongie]

As far as "should," I leave up to her. Perhaps she's a successful businesswoman and discovers she wants a kid. At 50, she does and makes a great mom. Who's to say otherwise?

[Dongie]

Damn! I had a penis transplant story for you, but no guys can reply.

[Charliefretz329]

Sorry lol. You can share here if you’d like

[Dongie]

Oh, I was in school in Houston back in '88, and one student told us all the story about his wife, a nurse. She said a guy brought out of a freezer a "15-inch schlong and slapped it on the metal table with a loud thud" for a lesbian sex change operation. We all believed him. True or not, I still don't know.

[Charliefretz329]

Never happened according to medical literature lol

[chrissykerdock]

closer to your 20's the better

[Bobabuba]

I would say 45 is kinda old and 50 is way too old.

[vj0090]

Check ur dm?

[RedInnocent69]

It starts becoming impossible mid/late 40s

[Miah06]

Did you know cats have 4 paws

[Charliefretz329]

Ummm, I do now

[Miah06]

Good. *walks away*

[Charliefretz329]

*sticks tongue 😛 out at you

[Hellraiser1984]

40. Just leave it at 40 for men and women.

[dudeinohio]

40 and older is considered high risk.

50 usually
