At what age does a woman lose fertility?

By Rebeca Reus BSc, MSc (embryologist).
Last Update: 04/26/2022

A woman's fertile period ends with the onset of menopause, approximately at the age of 50. However, there is no exact age at which fertility is lost, since each woman is different and ages at a different rate. However, it is true that after the age of 35 the chances of conceiving naturally decrease considerably, being more difficult to achieve in the years after 40.
