Read Luke chapter 1... No specific age is given concerning Elizabeth, however its clear she was well past normal child bearing age. (the biological clock). Physicians proclaim the mid 40s and beyond to be high risk cases.

Its reasonable to consider Elizabeth to have been well beyond 50 years of age. Our Father performs miracles such as the one worked with Elizabeth, so humans can not proclaim them to be trickery or deception.

Luke 1:7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.

Luke 1:18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.

Read the same comment from

Joshua 13:1

1 Kings 1:1

We learn from Genesis 17:17

Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?

Elizabeth was the second documented case of a woman bearing a child which would have been considered far to old to bear children

There are multiple St. Elizabeths, but if you are referring to St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, she had her first child in 1795 at the age of 20.
