Question: How old was the oldest woman to conceive naturally?
Answer: A woman from Portland, Oregon, gave birth to her own biologic child (no donor oocytes) at 57 years of age, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. The average age of menopause in this country is 51 years of age.

A British housewife became the world's oldest natural mother after giving birth at the age of 59, it was claimed yesterday. Dawn Brooke had a healthy boy without any fertility treatment.
The previous British record for oldest birth without fertility treatment was set by Kathleen Campbell from Kimberley, Nottinghamshire, who had son Joby at 55 in 1987.
Technically, any woman who has not gone through menopause, and who does not have other reproductive problems, can become pregnant. Successful natural pregnancies have been reported in women as old as 59.
