So as to reduce the dangers of childbirth among older women, doctors say that it is best for expectant mothers in this age group to increase the number of times they get screened, so that they can keep a close watch on the health of their child during the entire course of their pregnancy. (The National Health Insurance program pays for up to 10 screenings, but doctors recommend 12-14 for older women.)
為了將高齡產婦孕產風險降至最低，醫師建議，熟齡準媽媽在懷孕時最好能增加產檢次數（健保給付為 10 次，高齡者建議增加至 12 ∼ 14 次），以隨時掌握自己和寶寶的健康狀況。
