Fewer eggs during ovulation may make it difficult for a woman to get pregnant. While not all women are affected, it's important for those hoping to become pregnant to understand this issue.

However, sometimes a woman may release fewer eggs due to a variety of factors, such as illness, medications, or lifestyle changes. This condition is called "egg loss."

The decrease in eggs may be related to some diseases, such as decreased ovarian reserve function, ovarian failure, reproductive tract obstruction, etc. These diseases can cause a woman to be unable to release enough eggs, making it difficult to get pregnant.

In addition to diseases, some drugs may also cause egg reduction, such as chemotherapy drugs, antidepressants, hormonal drugs, etc. If women oopes to use birth control while taking these medications, it may also affect their egg count.
