Tipsfolk,

In my review for my adolescent development class, a student was
asserting that greater fertility influences teen pregnancy.  When I
asked for further explanation, she said some people are just more
fertile and get pregnant easier because of a longer window of
ovulation.

This just didn't make sense to me.  There's fertile (releasing an ovum
each month) and then there's problems with fertility (e.g., hormone
levels, lack of ovulation, etc.).  Can one person be more fertile than
another? What does more fertile mean?   Please refrain from referring
to anyone who has a reality show and a litter of children.

Thanks,
Rob
