The science of oocyte maturation
You were born with every egg you'll ever have — approximately 1 to 2 million primary oocytes formed before birth. From puberty onwards, small numbers of these eggs are recruited each month to begin maturation.
Oocyte maturation is a 90-day process. During this time, an egg develops the cellular structures, energy reserves, and nutrient composition it needs for potential fertilisation. Zinc is one of the most critical nutrients in this process — directly involved in cell division, DNA synthesis, and the metabolic activity of the developing oocyte.
Fertile Femme contains organic pumpkin seed — one of the most bioavailable natural sources of dietary zinc — supporting your body through the quiet 90-day work that happens before an egg is ever ovulated.
