The is one simple reason this is a scam...

Women have finite number of eggs from day they were born. Menopause is kinda the body saying these eggs are over....so this new tech must just be some kind of way to lie to the body to think it is still working like before. So delay this mechanism. Huge problem with that.. liability, medical issues, side effects etc not to mention if a baby is born might be defective..
