If a mother experienced premature ovarian decline at a young age, her daughter may also be prone to ovarian dysfunction. Age is an independent factor affecting ovarian function, which gradually declines with aging. In addition, emotional fluctuations and increased stress can lead to decreased ovarian function, and in some cases, even result in premature ovarian failure before the age of 40. Certain autoimmune diseases in women can also cause ovarian decline.
