Yes!: Most likely yes. Ovulation is part of a normal mentrual cycle. However, women are born with their eggs. As a women ages, the quality of the eggs can diminish. That being said, many women can get pregnant and have a very healthy child. So, if you don't want children at your age, use contraception.
