Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
It's always desired to get full medical check up & ovulation study/semen analysis by both partners before trying for conception.. specially that in advanced age after 32 years.Such check up with correction of any health problem found &folic acid intake are advised for a good fetal gain.. avoiding congenital anomolies & also mishaps in pregnancy
This is important for women nearing 35 ywars of age.. which always runs with certain prroblems in fetal outcome.
Thanks.
