Post-Menopause Ovaries Found to Remain Biologically Active, Puzzling Scientists

Emerging research is challenging the long-held view that ovaries become dormant after menopause. Scientists are finding that the organ continues to be biologically active well beyond a woman's fertile years. This new understanding repositions the ovary not merely as a reproductive structure, but as one that may influence broader aspects of women's health. Researchers are now working to understand the mechanisms behind this continued activity and its implications for long-term health outcomes.
