When you remove mortality from the equation, that number loses relevance. A human female has about a million ova at birth, and retains about 300,000 at puberty, the remainder having died. It's a failure of the body, rather than an exhaustion of the supply, that ends reproduction.
No, I didn't have this information prior to about five minutes ago.
