Eggs actually start developing in a female fetus while she is still in her mother's womb. At about 20 weeks of gestation, a female fetus has about 6 to 7 million eggs in her ovaries. However, by the time of her birth, this number drops to around 1 to 2 million as some eggs die and others stop developing.
