Solution

The correct option is D
49 - 52 years

All females have a limited period of fertility. This period starts with the first menstrual cycle or the menarche. Around the age of 49 to 52, menstrual cycle stops. This is called menopause. Menopause is defined as the absence of menstrual periods for 12 months. It is the time in a woman's life when the function of the ovaries ceases and marks the end of the fertility period.
