It is possible. They are some women who do experience late menopause, this can be one of those few cases.

There always some expectional cases like those who start the menses at the age of 20s. It still can happen the same to women experiencing menopause at very late age.

yeah Mashnn is right, It is still possible that a 58 year old woman can still get pregnant, depending on the onset of her menarche (first menstruation of her entire life). If your first menarche is between 10-13 years old, then it is possible that you will have your menopausal period in the range of 35/40-50 years old.

In my opinion, I will give you some details that you may have options to analyze the situation you shared. First, a woman menopausal age can be detected by calculating the age of the time a woman got her first period. Example, if she got her first period at the age of 15 years old, you will add + 30 years then the sum ( 45 yrs old) is the expected time she will menopause, it may vary from those ages of 43-48 years old in maximum. In your shared case, she got pregnant at 58 years old, meaning if you will subtract 30 years it means, (58-30= 28) she got her first menstruation period at the age of 28 years old. IF this is true, then she might be in one of the top list news as Believe it or not. Second, the possibility is, maybe her daughter is not her biological daughter but from other sources,maybe from relatives she had adapted. Third, a woman who are menopause already is not capable of being pregnant anymore because she has no more egg cell to be fertilized, but maybe, she was a surrogate mother meaning she carried a child in her womb from other donors. Since, the womb of any woman has no expiry unlike the egg cells, can be implanted after menopausal stage but with advice from the doctors regarding health conditions. Fourth, this the effect of vast-ranging medical technologies of us now. Most probably she was one of that product now in medical interventions . That,best medical science had discovered and being explored. I hope you understand my opinion, I do believe in what you said, but somehow for us to understand more about a certain thing, we gather facts and help from others in helping us understand things we do not understand far beyond we know. Im happy for her, at that age, she is very sure, that her daughter will take care of her well too and being given that opportunity at her age to take care and guiding her daughter . as like, both of them spending good memories together regardless of what others will say or criticize, as long they are happy in life.. Thank you for sharing that.

It is highly possible for a woman to be pregnant even at the age of 58. For as long as a woman still menstruates she can still bear child and I know many people who are past 50 and have not gone into menopause so they can still get pregnant. So that situation you mentioned is very highly possible.

maybe when she got pregnant with her daughter at age 58 she had undergone in vitro fertilization or something i don't think that could be possible for a woman to get pregnant at 58...it is hard for most women to get pregnant at age 44 and below..what more for a 58-year-old..i have read somewhere a woman got pregnant at 60 because she undergo in vitro ferilization..how can it be? when a woman goes menopause at around age 50 or more..and cannot bear a child naturally anymore..i guess that was the case..or maybe it's just an adopted daughter of hers?
