If you really are menopausal ie you no longer have your periods and your FSH is elevated, then you can do Donor egg/IVF to become pregnant ie you can find a young women to donate her eggs (for a fee usually) and then have in vitro fertilization with your partners sperm and then have the embryos transferred to your uterus. You would carry the fetus and be the birth mother. I would recommend seeing a Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility specialist to discuss your options.
