I'm 39 years old and trying to get pregnant what are my chances?

Answer 1

"According to the Mayo Clinic, a woman's fertility peaks between the ages of 20 and 24. However, fertility rates remain relatively constant through the early 30s, after which they begin to decline:

At age 30 to 35, fertility is 15 to 20 percent below maximum. From age 35 to 39, the decrease is 25 to 50 percent. From 40 to 45, the decrease is 50 to 95 percent."

Answer 2

Getting Pregnant At 39

Answer 3

Your chances are honestly, very slim. Once you hit forty they really discourage women from trying to have children. The risk for birth defects (autism especially) is a lot higher than younger women, under the age of thirty. I'm not saying you CAN'T have one at that age, but your chances of actually getting pregnant are a lot less the older you are. A lady at my work who is a few years over forty or just turned forty got pregnant and had a miscarriage a month later. It's a lot more risky, but it IS possible. It will give you a lot to think about before you try, but I wouldn't do it without consulting your doctor or obygyn first!
Good Luck...

Answer 4

Not everyone's chances are going to be the same at that age, just like one woman's chance isn't going to be the same as another's at any other age, whether it's 18, 25, or 40. One of my friends/coworkers is 39 and pregnant and I've known a number of women who have gotten pregnant at 40, one who was told that she was never going to have kids. Have you had any children before now? If so, did you have problems getting pregnant? Your chance of multiples is increased, but not knowing anything more than your age, it's impossible to know your chances of getting pg.

Answer 5

If you adopt a child first, you'll most likely end up pregnant within 6 months. I'd be a little concerned about Down's Syndrome however.

Answer 7

You don't know until you try. I was nervous because I waited until now (I am 30), and I've been on the pill for about half of my life. I went off the pill, and we were using condoms(because I heard it was good to wait a bit after getting off the pill), and I got pregnant. Meanwhile, I have friends in their 20's who have problems and had to go to fertility specialists. I say relax and try. Of course, let your doctor know your concerns, and seek his/her advice if you are having difficulties.

Answer 10

I found my knight in shining armor a little later in the fairy tale and this is what can help to increase chances; no smoking, drinking, caffein, eat healthy, have a healthy body, track cycles and ovulations, get pre-pregnancy vitamins (yes, they have them). BTW... I made my husband (then fiance) do the same and we conceived on our wedding night. :) Remember, every body make up is different. It takes the "average" women around 12 months to get PG. At age 49 if you have trouble after a few months I would see an OB to get things speeded up since the chance of a downs baby increases as we age.
