How long should I continue to eat carbs after working out?

It depends. Normally no longer than 3-4 hours.

I'm a female so would I be better sticking with 2-3 hours?

1-2 hours is my suggestion. Probably no more than an hour.

There is no time limit.However, for a woman you will most likely do best with a dinner and a dessert and that being pretty much it.

Not sure if there's any difference for a woman but I haven't noticed a difference much by changing the length. I usually keep it to 4 hours maximum but I've dabbled with 1 – 2 hours max and haven't seen a difference. I find what's more important is figuring out how the amount of carbs that works best for you.
