Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Female babies are born with all the egg cells they are ever going to have and no new egg cells are made during a woman’s lifetime. An immature egg is called an oocyte – oocytes rest in follicles (fluid-filled sacs that contain an immature egg) in your ovaries until they begin to mature.

Detailed explanation-2: -Yes, babies who have ovaries are born with all the egg cells they’re ever going to have. No new egg cells are made during their lifetime. This has long been accepted as fact.

Detailed explanation-3: -Because many eggs start to develop but die off before being ovulated, a woman goes through roughly 300, 000-400, 000 eggs in their reproductive years, but only ovulates 300-400 eggs. The average woman runs out of eggs and starts menopause around the egg of 52.

Detailed explanation-4: -Toward the end of puberty, girls begin to release eggs as part of a monthly period called the menstrual cycle. About once a month, during ovulation, an ovary sends a tiny egg into one of the fallopian tubes.
