Although it varies widely for each person, 45 is rather young to be going through menopause. The best thing for you to do is go to your doctor and have a check up. There are several causes for your symptoms. And going with out your period for 3 months is rather strange unless you are on birth control. Please see a doctor only he/she can tell you what is going on for sure.
Good Luck.

In most cases menopause happens between the age of 45 and 55, the average age being 51. Find out when your mother went through the menopause, this should give you some clue as to whether you are going through it. But the best thing would be to go to your doctor and get your hormone levels checked. HTH.

45 is not too early but early. After consulting the doctor you can be on estrogen pills.

No, some women, (in rare cases) go through meopause in their 20's!! I suggest you speak w/you doctor to find out if it is possible that is might be pre-mature.

No it is not too early.
And given your reported symptoms it is likely the right diagnosis.
Check with your doctor.
