Countless single women are tortured by the thought that their prime childbearing years are ticking away. A researcher from Britain's University of Sheffield has developed a test that may be able to tell you just how much time you have left. The test measures blood levels of three hormones that determine when you're nearing menopause--and how many of your viable eggs remain. U.K.-based Biofusion plans to release the kit in January...
