I don't think it's just fertility that people are talking about. In most cases that I hear this talked about, it's generally around the fact that pregnancies are riskier after 35.
From the article:
> Women who become pregnant after age 35 are at increased risk for complications that affect the parent and fetus.
> While many sources suggest a more dramatic drop at around 35, this is unclear since few studies have been conducted since the nineteenth century. One 2004 study of European women found fertility of the 27–34 and the 35–39 groups had only a four-percent difference.
