A couple of very strange questions I need answered.

I'm working on a story. Don't mind me.

1. How many eggs would you normally find in the ovaries of a health woman ih er twenties?

2. After death, how long do you have to harvest those eggs before they become unusable? The death in question comes from the failure of the long-sleep system on a slower-than-light colony vessel. So assume a fairly sterile environment with no insects or scavengers getting at the body.

Don't worry, this is not the main focus of the plot, I just need the right numbers to plug in when the time comes.
