When does a woman stop making eggs?

A woman is born with a finite number of eggs, and she typically has around 1-2 million at birth. This number declines significantly over time, with about 300,000 to 400,000 remaining by puberty. Women generally stop releasing eggs during menopause, which usually occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, marking the end of their reproductive years. After menopause, the ovaries no longer produce eggs.
