Ovaries found to remain active after menopause

Original: The ovary doesn't retire after menopause

Northwestern University researchers report that the ovary continues to function after menopause, challenging the long-held view that it simply shuts down. The finding suggests ovarian tissue keeps playing a biological role in postmenopausal women, with potential implications for hormone health, aging research and future treatments. It is drawing attention for overturning a standard assumption in women's health.

Why now: A new study challenges the widespread medical belief that the ovaries stop functioning after menopause.
