Can a woman produce more eggs?

By Andrea Rodrigo B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).

No, it is not possible. As explained above, all women are born with a limited supply of eggs, that is, with the total number of eggs that they will carry throughout their lifetime. The ovarian reserve diminishes with age until its complete depletion when the woman reaches menopause.
