I've always had my periods 27-28 days apart which made it easier to know when I was ovulating. Recently they've been only 20 days apart. Does anyone know if this means I'm going through menopause? I'm 35 and I thought it was too early.

you could be but it might just be due 2 a low iron count which u can see about at your doctor because with low iron counts u sometimes come about a week-2weeks early on your period and also feel weak/lazy most of the time but best get it checked out asap

It very well could be pre-menopause, there are so many things that can effect menstruation it would be hard to tell. Stress, illnesses, weight gain/loss and so on. Never too early for menopause my mom was menopausal at the age of 32. Consider seeing a doctor just to be safe.

We start what is called perimenopause in our 30's. It is the begining of menopause, you may notice small changes in your body, your period, energy levels, etc. If the females in your family went through menopause early, you might too.

you could be. Shorter periods could be from a number of things
stress being the first thing, change in diet--would not be too alarmed unless continues.
