ELI5: Does pregnancy delay menopause?

If the number of eggs women have is finite,  and you drop 1 egg per month during the standard cycle, do you delay menopause by 9 months every time you get pregnant (assuming full term pregnancies)?

No. One follicle is matured and released as an egg, but other follicles die in the thousands every month regardless of ovulation. Same idea works for using birth control - just because it prevents ovulation, it doesn't mean it will delay menopause/prolong fertility.
