A man's reproductive age starts at puberty and ends when he dies. A woman's reproductive age is between Menarche (when she begins ovulating) and Menopause (when she stops ovulating). However, she has plenty eggs way before Menarche and way after Menopause. Why, do you think, Mother-Nature has put a limit on the reproductive age of women, but not men

Answer:

If women were capable of having children throughout their life, the population would be beyond the capacity at which our Earth could handle, causing a sure collapse of humanity as we overuse our resources. As well, our bodies weaken as we age, making pregnancies unsafe for both parent and child at older ages.
