Cheating Time

Synopsis
Asks whether it is possible to rewrite our biological destiny. Already motherhood is possible after the menopause, but it may be possible to rejuvenate the ovaries and reverse the menopause, or at least postpone it until the age of 70 or so. Asks whether these controversial techniques enable women to have lifelong fertility like men.
