Take control of your fertility
Is my biological clock ticking
The phrase “biological clock” is often thrown around in conversations about fertility — usually in hushed tones, often with a sense of urgency, fear, or even guilt. But what does it actually mean? Is it something every woman or couple should worry about? At Ovviia, we believe knowledge is power — and understanding your fertility timeline can help you take control of your journey, rather than feel controlled by it

The Science Behind the Clock
Biologically, women are born with all the eggs they’ll ever have — roughly one to two million at birth. By puberty, that number drops to around 300,000–400,000. Over time, the quantity and quality of those eggs decline, with a more noticeable dip typically occurring after the age of 35.
This doesn’t mean pregnancy becomes impossible in your 30s or 40s — far from it. But the probability of natural conception does start to decrease, and the risk of complications, miscarriage, or genetic abnormalities (like Down syndrome) begins to increase. That’s where the idea of a “biological clock” comes in — it’s a metaphor for the natural changes in fertility potential over time.
But Everyone’s Clock Ticks Differently
Here’s what they don’t always tell you: there’s no universal “fertility expiry date.” One woman at 37 might have a strong ovarian reserve and healthy hormone levels. Another at 32 might already be facing diminished fertility. Stress, lifestyle, underlying health conditions, and even genetics all play a role.
That’s why Ovviia believes in personalized fertility diagnostics — not fear-based narratives. Our approach uses data-driven fertility health assessments and hormonal testing to give you a clear picture of your current fertility health, so you’re not operating on assumptions or social pressure.
When Should You Worry — Or Not?
Ask yourself:
Are you thinking of having kids in the next 1–3 years?
Are you unsure when (or if) you want children, but want to keep your options open?
Have you been trying to conceive for over 6 months to a year without success?
Do you have a medical history (like PCOS, thyroid issues, or endometriosis) that could affect fertility?
If you answered yes to any of these, it’s worth getting proactive. Fertility is not a crisis — but it’s an area where early insights create better outcomes. Whether that means exploring egg freezing, understanding your ovulation window better, or just learning more about your hormone profile, small steps today can protect your choices tomorrow.
