Abstract
Over the last decades, there has been a progressive delay in the mean maternal age of childbirth in industrialized countries due to multifactorial causes. The proportion of women giving birth for the first time at 35 years or older is now higher than decades ago. Pregnancy in this age group is considered advanced age pregnancy. As age increases, there is a rising risk of infertility, mainly due to the inability to conceive, as well as gestational and perinatal complications, which can potentially become an emotional and economic burden for couples.
