Abstract

Fertility, or the capacity to produce a child, declines with age as the ovaries undergo a natural decrease in follicle count related to oocyte atresia. However, patients significantly overestimate the likelihood of pregnancy at all ages. It is important that health care professionals educate patients regarding the natural decline in ovarian reserve and quality of egg follicles throughout their reproductive lifespans. Patients who are interested in becoming pregnant also should be educated on non-age-related factors that may accelerate ovarian decline to optimize and more completely understand their reproductive health and family-building opportunities. Despite the existence of resources on ovarian decline and non-age-related factors affecting fertility, more evidence-based resources on ovarian decline are needed for both patients and health care professionals.

ACOG委员会声明第22号：关于卵巢因素生育能力下降的预期咨询。

生育能力，或生育孩子的能力，随着年龄的增长而下降，因为卵巢经历了与卵母细胞闭锁相关的卵泡计数的自然减少。然而，患者明显高估了所有年龄段的怀孕可能性。重要的是，卫生保健专业人员教育患者关于卵巢储备和卵泡质量在其生殖寿命期间的自然下降。有意怀孕的患者还应接受有关可能加速卵巢衰退的非年龄相关因素的教育，以优化和更全面地了解其生殖健康和建立家庭的机会。尽管存在关于卵巢衰退和影响生育的非年龄相关因素的资源，但患者和卫生保健专业人员都需要更多基于证据的卵巢衰退资源。
