Women become less fertile as they get older. A woman's fertility
peaks between the ages of 22 to 26, after which it starts to decline,
with this decline being accelerated after age 35. However, the exact
estimates of the chances of a woman to conceive after a certain age are
not clear, with research giving differing results. The chances of a
couple to successfully conceive at an advanced age depend on many
factors, such as the general health of a woman, but also the fertility
of the male partner.
