A Breakdown of the Fertility Timeline
Peak fecundity, or the ability to get pregnant, in young women occurs between their late teens and late twenties, with the highest chance of conception often in the early to mid-20s.
A woman's egg quality and quantity decline with age, and fertility starts to decrease slowly in the early 30s, with the decline accelerating after age 35.
Peak Reproductive Years
Late teens and late twenties: A woman's ability to conceive is at its highest during this period.
Early to mid-20s: This is often cited as the time of peak fertility, with a higher chance of conceiving each month.
Factors Affecting Fertility
Age is the most important factor: The single most significant factor influencing a woman's fertility is her age.
Egg quality and quantity: Women are born with all the eggs they will ever have, and both the quality and quantity of these eggs decline as they age.
The decline after 30: While fertility starts to decline slowly by age 30, this process accelerates significantly after age 35.
Chances of Pregnancy
Monthly chance: A woman in her early to mid-20s has about a 25–30% chance of getting pregnant each month.
Slower decline in the late 20s: Fertility declines more slowly during the late 20s compared to the early 30s and beyond.
