Reproductive Longevity

Meaning

The duration of an organism’s life span during which it retains the capacity for successful reproduction, often measured in women by the length of the reproductive window, from menarche to menopause. This concept extends beyond simply the age of menopause to encompass the quality and viability of gametes and the overall hormonal environment supporting fertility. It is a key focus area in anti-aging and hormonal wellness research.
