Not infertile, they just have very low fertility in general, old or young, because they have long lives. Also I assume it's their females that enter menopause. Longevity+low fertility is mother nature's prevention of overpopulation (it's actually happening somewhat to humans IRL with fertility rates in the Western world being fraction of that just century earlier). Aen Seidhe are dieing out because they are reduced to small numbers already and keep on dying as part of Scoiatael and in pogroms at much greater rate than they reproduce, also their most fertile females probably died in Aelirenn's uprising. However that doesn't have anything to do with Auberon who is Aen Elle which are not dying out but rather want to escape their world.
