There's a whole entire kaboodle of stars in the entire galaxy. It's usually estimated at somewhere between 200 billion and 300 billion, give or take a few hundred million.
Don't try to imagine how many that is. At least not clean and sober.
Imagine a football gridiron with a regulation running track around the outside, as you will find at many schools and colleges. Imagine natural grass covering the entire area inside the track. There would be about 30 billion blades of grass in that area, or about 1/10 as many blades of grass as there are stars in the Milky Way galaxy.
It will blow your mind right on up.

The Milky Way has between 100 billion and 400 billion stars, making it fairly large as galaxies go; and as I recall Andromeda is even bigger. Multiply that by at least the same number of galaxies in the universe and try to imagine how many stars, planets and life forms there must be out there!

It's impossible to know the exact number of stars in a galaxy since they're so many different kinds out there. It would have to depend on which galaxy.
