Patient's question:
How many eggs does a woman have in her lifetime~How many eggs does a woman release each time she has her period~
Doctor's answer:
Generally, it is shot once a month. If the menstrual cycle is normal, ovulation usually occurs between the two menstrual periods or around fourteen days before the next menstrual period. Ovulation refers to the process where a mature follicle develops to a certain stage, prominently protruding from the surface of the ovary. As the follicular fluid increases and the internal pressure rises, the ovarian tissue of the protruding part becomes thinner and eventually ruptures. The secondary oocyte along with its surrounding zona pellucida and corona radiata is expelled from the ovary along with the follicular fluid.
