Teleporters, Warp speed, and phasers you have no issues with, but medical science advancing enough to extend the human period of fertility is unrealistic?

If she were trying to have children, sure then I can believe medical science could make that happen.

But menopause happens in part because the body runs out of viable eggs. The body doesn't produce more over a life; you are born with your supply.

Why would medical science have given her more eggs at some point?
