hi this piece below is from women's-health-concerns. org the menopause is influenced by hormones – or more correctly by a change in hormone levels. during a woman’s fertile years her ability to produce an egg each month is associated with the release of three reproductive hormones (oestradiol oestrone and oestriol) that are referred to collectively as oestrogen. oestrogen is mainly produced by the ovaries though small amounts are also made by the adrenal glands and by the placenta of a pregnant woman. i think you find that your egg laying days are now over and your ovary's are now what keep your hormones stable. hope this helps you. good luck
i am 59 years old have gone thru menopause. would i be a good egg donor for my daughter who cannot become pregnant?
