Myth: Women can’t get pregnant naturally after the age of 35.
Myth: While fertility does decline with age, a number of studies have found that 38- and 39-year-olds were still capable of getting pregnant naturally 80% of the time within six months. However, according to Marla Ahlgrimm, the general consensus remain that the chances of conceiving after a woman’s 40th birthday drop to less than 5% each cycle.
