For women, the ability to have children reaches a peak in the early 40s true or false

False, for women, the ability to have children decreases with age, because of the decline in the ability to release eggs ready for fertilization, because of the increase in miscarriages and because of the decline in health, that can interfere with fertility. Due to the increase in women having children after their 30s, fertility problems have become more common.

This is False.
