What age does a woman stop being fertile?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

A woman's peak reproductive years are between the late teens and late 20s. By age 30, fertility (the ability to get pregnant) starts to decline. This decline becomes more rapid once you reach your mid-30s. By 45, fertility has declined so much that getting pregnant naturally is unlikely for most women.

I'm just wondering if taking HCG can actually help me get pregnant, or is it just to assist with the process? It's been exactly 10 days since I took it, and I'm having abdominal pain, back pain, body aches, and I'm peeing a lot more frequently. I was given HCG on the 12th day, and my doctor mentioned there's ovulation happening on both sides. Could these symptoms mean I'm pregnant?

No these symptoms are not related to pregnancy

I'm 7 weeks pregnant and was wondering if it's possible to have an abortion at this stage. I just celebrated my first wedding anniversary and feel like I might need a bit more time before taking on the responsibilities of becoming a parent. Can you help me understand my options?

You can consider using medications such as Mifepristone and Misoprostol under medical supervision to terminate the pregnancy. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for guidance and support during this process.

My left ovary has something called an enlarged cyst that measures about 27x21mm, and I've been having really heavy stomach pains and bleeding during my periods. The pain's been so bad that I feel like throwing up sometimes. My periods are also delayed. Should I be worried about the cyst or all these symptoms, or is there something particular this might be indicating?

Your symptoms could be related to an ovarian cyst. The delay in periods, heavy stomach pain, and bleeding during periods, along with vomiting, are concerning symptoms. I recommend you consult with a gynecologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can take pain relief medication such as ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) to help with the stomach pain. The usual dosage for ibuprofen is 200-400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
