Is it normal to go into menopause at 45?

Menstruation is the most important phenomenon in the female body. It is a manifestation of active reproductive capacity. For women of childbearing age, the normality of menstruation has a huge impact on their health. However, menstruation cannot accompany women forever. Menstruation will stop as women age. This is called menopause. Generally, the age of menopause is around 50 years old. Is it normal to have menopause at 45?

The average age of menopause for Chinese women is around 51 years old. Of course, this does not mean that it is normal for women to reach menopause at the age of 51. Due to external interference, such as genetics, disease, surgery and other reasons, amenorrhea may occur earlier or later. Therefore, generally speaking, amenorrhea between the ages of 40 and 58 is considered a normal time period. Therefore, menopause at the age of 45 is normal and not too early.

There may be many women in life who experience menopause before the age of 35. This is called "premature ovarian failure". Most of them are also related to the decrease of estrogen in the body. Of course there are also certain genetic factors. It is also possible that women suffer from gynecological diseases, which cause premature aging. If necessary, you can go to the hospital for a gynecological examination.

If a woman has not reached menopause after the age of 58, it is mostly because the hormone levels in her body have been high for a long time, which is actually not a good thing. Because when the estrogen level in the body is too high, it may cause endometrial abnormalities and lead to gynecological diseases, and even the risk of endometrial cancer and breast cancer. According to research in Western countries, many women enter menopause after the age of 53. Therefore, the chance of contracting breast cancer is even higher than in China. Therefore, when women enter menopause very late, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a detailed examination.

Women may experience some symptoms before menopause, but these symptoms vary from person to person. For women who are facing menopause, don't be too nervous. Some people experience menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes and sweating, while others may suffer from insomnia or become irritable.
