When do ovaries begin to age?

The ovaries are one of the representative organs of women. Like other female organs, they will gradually age as women age. In addition, the aging of female ovaries will cause some harm to the female body, such as more difficult pregnancy, early menopause, and more prone to aging skin. Women need to pay attention to this situation. Here we will introduce when the ovaries begin to age.

What harm does ovarian aging have on the body?

1. Difficulty in getting pregnant: The early symptom of premature ovarian failure is amenorrhea, which is also the beginning of menopause.

When a woman experiences menopause, her ovulation will be affected. Conception is formed by the implantation of a fertilized egg. If there is a problem with the egg, a fertilized egg cannot be formed, which will make pregnancy difficult.

2. Early menopause: When the lack of estrogen and progesterone affects the function of the autonomic nervous system, women may also experience symptoms of menopausal syndrome such as hot flashes, sweating, facial flushing, and emotional instability. Severe cases may develop into depression. Some women also experience symptoms of premature degeneration of female characteristics, such as lack of elasticity of skin and mucous membranes, breast atrophy, decreased secretions, and vulvar atrophy.

3. Accelerated skin aging: After ovarian aging, women's skin becomes loose quickly and is accompanied by hair loss and obesity. Especially after menopause, the disorder of female estrogen leads to increased pigmentation and dull skin.

At what age do women's ovaries begin to age?

The ovaries are the organs that secrete estrogen and progesterone in women. The status of estrogen and progesterone will determine how young a woman looks. The ovarian secretion function of women decreases after the age of 35. Generally, women's ovarian function begins to decline when they are around 45-50 years old. After the ovarian function declines, women will gradually experience changes in various body systems due to the lack of hormone nourishment secreted by the ovaries: such as irregular menstruation, vaginal atrophy and dryness, sexual dysfunction, hot flashes, insomnia, nightmares, irritability and other menopausal symptoms, and subtle changes will also occur in the body, such as weight gain, bloating, sagging buttocks, increased waist circumference, dry and dull skin and hair, osteoporosis, etc.
