With the increasing age of a woman, her reproductive capacity decreases, which is mainly due to a loss in an oocyte store in the ovaries and an increasing amount of double-stranded DNA breaks accumulating in the remaining oocytes. Age-related increase in DNA damage in oocytes correlates with decreased expression of DNA repair genes.
