Now available! Results from our interdisciplinary collaboration suggest that the timing of onset of the menopausal transition and menopause are determined by the pattern of loss of primordial ovarian follicles.

Modeling the loss of ovarian follicle reserve produces the population distributions of menopause and the menopausal transition.

We've been interested in this question forever: why are girls born with so many (sometimes more than a million) primordial ovarian follicles? A new paper in press in @BiolReprod with Dr. Sean Lawley (U of Utah) provides some new insights:
