It is uncommon, but not totally unexpected. As long as you are still have any types of periods on occasion the ovary may release an egg. Uncommon, but can happen

No. A woman no longer ovulates after reaching menopause.

After 45, the likelihood of spontaneous pregnancy is greatly diminished. Additionally, miscarriages are more common.
