Abstract :Aim: To determine possible risks for mother and baby in advanced age pregnancies. Materials and Methods: This study is a retrospective archive review examining 14192 cases who gave live births between 24 and 42 weeks between 2020-2023. Results: The frequency of preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes mellitus, rupture of membranes and possible miscarriage was high in advanced-age pregnant women compared to other groups. When the groups were compared according to neonatal outcomes, the frequency of low birth weight in adolescence was high than in advanced-age pregnant women. When the groups were compared in terms of macrosomia, the frequency of macrosomia was high in the older age group than in the other groups. Conclusion: It should be known that pregnancies at an advanced-age can be more complicated for both mother and baby, and pregnancy follow-up should be done more carefully.
