Doctors often recommend amniocentesis and CVS for women over the age of 35 because as a woman gets older, the risk for her having a baby with a genetic disorder, chromosomal abnormality, or other issues increases. This occurs because a woman is born with a set number of eggs, and as she ages, so do the eggs. Thus, the eggs decay and may not combine correctly with the sperm cell.
