Will I experience early menopause since I started developing early?

Question

One lady told me that, & I just want to verify if it's true or false.

Answer 1

From what I've heard, the later you start your period, the younger you are when it stops. I've never heard the earlier you start it the later it stops, though I guess it would make sense.
I work in a pharmacy, and women who are 20 years older than me(I'm 30) are still getting birth control pills. It scares me - I don't want my period for another 20 years!

Answer 2

Not necessarily. The are alot of depending factors.
Like if you smoke or drink. It is said that these help in speeding along the process before you would like it to.
Some medications in your system.
Weather or not your biological mother went thru hers early.
If you have to have any type of female surgery like a hysterectomy.

But just because you developed early is not enough. Besides there is only probably one or two years difference in what your talking about as far as developing early.

Answer 3

I have heard the opposite - later menopause. Sorry!

Answer 4

Maybe, maybe not. When did your mom and grandmas go through menopause? You'll likely follow that pattern.

Answer 5

Not necessarily, a better indication is when your mother went/goes through it and even that's not for definite.

Answer 6

I've always heard you follow the same pattern as your mom..I did..I would think it's true..

Answer 7

false

Answer 8

true
