Women have a new argument to the well-wishers withtheir endless "watch ticking", "you should be realized as a woman" and "career is not as important as motherhood." Portuguese scientists from the University of Coimbra published the results of their study in the Journal of Public Health. They found out that women who conceived a first-born after 30 years have the opportunity to live longer than their peers, who gave birth to "-teen" and "twenty with a tail".Photo:Getty Images"Women who have children later tend to live longer, and genes that make late pregnancy possible benefit a woman's life," the article says. It seems that this will also help women cope with the fear that when a late child grows up, the mother will already be a pensioner and will not be able to be a "good enough mother" for him. After all, the same scientists believe that the life expectancy of a "late mother" may be due to her successful personal experience. For example, British fertility expert Lord Winston says: "Women who decide to have a child later tend to have a higher social status, and their income is better. It is easier for them to postpone pregnancy for social reasons, and it is well known that people with a higher level of education usually have both a higher income and a longer life expectancy. Because they can afford to lead a healthier lifestyle." However, at the beginning of their article, the scientists make the necessary reservation: it is advisable for women not to put an end to trying to conceive at an earlier age, and for society to handle scientific data carefully. Because women who try to give birth at 30 and 40 will have to put in more effort due to the smaller number of eggs. Another study on the positive impact of late childbirth was published in the journal Menopause. American scientists studied 400 women over 70 and found that the DNA marker responsible for longevity is three times more common in the genes of mothers who gave birth after 33 than in mothers who gave birth to their last child before 29 and stopped there.
