You say "cannot" but the TV show says otherwise, as it's
happened and been seen to happen on-screen... so the TV show
takes priority over your opinion. So, there's no such thing as
cannot when IT DID!!!

 
Aggie has no imagination.
 
He cannot get his head around the notion that Time Lords are not human, so
the idea that they might have different solutions for biological conundrums
from being restricted to human concerns is beyond him.
 

That’s assuming they even have a solution. Biological beings are
imperfect. Even fictional ones.

Aggy’s argument is like saying humans “cannot” fall down stairs
because doing it while pregnant could kill the unborn fœtus.

And yet, stairs exist and people do sometimes fall down them.
And, yes, unborn fœtuses can sometimes die.

But, yeah, there are also plenty of possible fictional solutions if
you use your imagination.

Maybe Time Lords lay eggs instead of getting pregnant. Or
maybe male-presenting Time Lords are actually hermaphrodites.
Or maybe pregnancy releases a hormone that blocks sex-changing
regenerations.

I suggested these possibilities to Aggy in the past, but he
rejected them all because humans aren’t hermaphroditic
egg-layers with regeneration-controlling hormones. So Time
Lords aren’t!
