Aging causes gradual decline in number and quality of
primordial follicles
Early sign of reproductive aging is shortening of menstrual cycle by 2 or 3
days
due to increased selection of
dominant
follicle
Changes to corpus luteum with age leads to increased
FSH
and
Osetrogen
leading to mood swings and increased chance of
twins
As reproductive age increases, number of
follicles
reduces, increasing
length
and
irregularity
of cycle
Oestrogen
levels remain in first year of menopause
Menopausal women have increased levels of
FSH
and
LH
as they do not lead to a rise in Oestrogen and Progesterone- elevated level declines with age
