2. What are the factors that affect pregnancy?

1. Age: After the age of 30, fertility is inversely proportional to age. According to women's physiological characteristics, 24 to 29 years old is the best childbearing age. From the age of 30, the fertility curve begins to show a downward trend, and declines significantly after the age of 40. It is generally believed that the possibility of pregnancy after the age of 45 is extremely small. So, for women, age is a crucial factor in fertility.

2. Miscarriage: Every miscarriage will increase your chances of infertility by 3% to 5%. Abortion can easily cause damage to the endometrium, making it difficult for the fertilized egg to take root. In addition, if the operation is done improperly and causes infection or if one is unable to rest well after the operation, it can easily lead to problems such as fallopian tube blockage and endometriosis, making it difficult to get pregnant.

3. Gynecological diseases: Various gynecological diseases or lesions secondary to reproductive tract infections can reduce the possibility of conception.

4. Mental stress: Being impatient for quick results or seeking quick success will make things that were originally within reach become more difficult and reduce the chances of pregnancy.

5. Bad habits: smoking, drinking or staying up late are called the "three negatives" to conception.

6. Abuse of supplements: Blindly taking supplements or drugs reduces the possibility of conception.

7. Environmental pollution: Harmful living and working environment has a certain impact on conception.
