Women and men globally are delaying the birth of their first child. In the UK, the average age of first conception in women is 29 years. Women experience age-related fertility decline so it is important that men and women are well-informed about this, and other aspects of fertility. A group of UK stakeholders have established the Fertility Education Initiative to develop tools and information for children, adults, teachers, parents and healthcare professionals dedicated to improving knowledge of fertility and reproductive health.
全球范围内的男性和女性都在推迟生育头胎的时间。在英国,女性首次怀孕的平均年龄为29岁。女性会经历与年龄相关的生育能力下降,因此让男性和女性充分了解这一点以及生育的其他方面非常重要。一群英国利益相关者设立了生育教育倡议,旨在为儿童、成年人、教师、家长和医疗保健专业人员开发工具和信息,致力于提高对生育和生殖健康的认识。
