Visit a fertility clinic, for guidance & management.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query. I have read it & understood your concern
Yes..in this era of modern medicine..you can get pregnant at any age..irrespective of your marital state..
1. primarily a woman's menstruation with ovulation is essential. But even if it' s not proper it can be managed by-
- stimulated ovulation followed by either natural fertilization with timely sex or artificial insemination.
- Collection & preservation of female gametes- (the mature ova) - with it' use in
vitro fertilization (test tube baby - where egg is fertilized outside of a female body).
2. Second need is timely sex with deposition of healthy sperm in female genitals at ovulation time.
Sperms can be obtained from a known person /unknown donor from a sperm bank ...& deposited in female body by-
- natural sexual relation
- by artificial insemination at calculated time
- by in vitro fertilization in laboratory followed by embryo 'transfer in female uterus. Now the fetus grows in maternal body & delivery of baby follows routinely/ by cesarean section
3. Alternatively a donors semen & use of a rented womb/uterus(of a surrogate mother )can be used in case uterus of a willing mother is not available (because of health problem/ hormonal problem)
This way any willing woman can be a mother... then why not you?Only need is to consult a gynecologist to assess your menstrual status & consult a fertility clinic to find the procedure suitable for you.
I hope the answer is both informative & useful to you. Any followup query is welcome.
Please rate the answer ..if you find it useful... before you close it.
Thanks.
