Is it possible to get pregnant after the menopause?

Grover

Someone I know said they were pregnant after the menopause by getting a serge of hormones?(and obviously after sleeping with someone) is this possible?



Krishna

From what I understand, it is not possible AFTER menopause, but DURING menopause -- and even more likely for multiple births at that time as well!



Francina

no



Ervin

Menopause is not the end of everything. Menopause is caused by hormone changes and it may be able to reverse due to hormone therapy. But it is generally believed that offspring out of ovum of old women is likely to have birth defects. It is possible to be pregnant in that way.

It's amazing just how many women do get pregnant because they think they are "safe" during this time, usually they aren't in full menopause, just maybe haven't had their period for several months. My mom got pregnant with her sixth child when she was 45 - it was a very happy surprise for us all!

Yes, the doctor told me its unlikely after around 48 years old but each month I panick as periods are very irregular, my grandmother had her first child at the start of the menopause and 5 years later her 4th child.
