The doctor named the average age of motherhood in Moscow

In Moscow, the average age of women at the birth of their first child reached 29 years. This was announced on November 7 by Anton Olenev, chief freelance specialist in gynecology and obstetrics at the Moscow Department of Health.

"The average age of the first birth in Moscow is 29 plus, but in general, the average age of our patients is 32-34 years, and the number of patients who give birth over the age of 40 is increasing every year," he said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

According to the expert, according to the World Health Organization, a woman's reproductive age ranges from 18 to 49 years. At the same time, Olenev noted, the physiological capabilities of the body and the process of bearing a child are more favorable when childbirth occurs closer to the beginning of this age range.
