D Correct answer
Explanation

This question asks for the most concise and natural phrasing. The original 'In a period of time when women typically have had' is wordy. Option D 'At a time when women typically' is the most concise and natural. 'In a period of time' (Option A) is redundant - 'At a time' or simply 'When' would suffice. 'During a time in which typically' (Option B) is awkward and wordy. 'Typically, during a time when' (Option C) is less natural than placing 'typically' after the time reference. Option D provides the cleanest, most idiomatic expression.
