Fertility after 35 is a real change in the body, but it is not a wall. Women are born with all the eggs they will ever have, and both the number and quality of those eggs go down slowly over time. That decline becomes more noticeable in a woman’s mid to late 30s and speeds…
DetailsPremenstrual dysphoric disorder, or PMDD, is a severe form of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) that affects a small percentage of women who have periods.
