If some contraceptives stop your period, what happens to the egg?

Question

Can your uterus just keep it to use later in life? Would you never go through menopause?

In: 78

Answer 1

My semi educated guess is Ovarian Follice Atresia, which is the break down of ovarian follicles over time. It’s the process that occurs in people with ovaries that causes them to lose the majority of their eggs before puberty. So ovulation isn’t the only, or even main way that eggs are lost.
