Why It Matter
Pregnancy is still possible during perimenopause—the years leading up to menopause—because your body may still release eggs sometimes, even if your periods are irregular. However, your chances of getting pregnant drop as you get older and approach menopause.
Once you've gone 12 months in a row without a period, you're officially in menopause, and you can no longer get pregnant naturally. This happens because your ovaries stop releasing eggs.
