Genes May Hold Key To Late Motherhood
COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Why can some 45-year-olds easily have a baby while much younger women have difficulty becoming pregnant?
The answer, say Israeli researchers, could lie in their genes.
Having a naturally conceived child past the age of 45 is rare. But Dr Neri Laufer of the Haddassah University Hospital in Jerusalem has discovered that some of those older mothers seem to have a distinct genetic profile.
