In this episode, Prof Chapman explains one of fertility’s biggest puzzles: why a woman’s biological clock runs down so much faster than the rest of her body. Drawing on decades of experience and more than three and a half thousand babies, he walks through the remarkable journey of your eggs, from the millions laid down before you were even born, to the half a million you had at birth, to the slow decline that ends in menopause. He unpacks why older women get fewer eggs from IVF, what the AMH test can and can’t tell you, and the crucial difference between egg quantity and egg quality. A clear, honest look at the science every woman deserves to understand.
