What is the average age of a person entering menopause?

What does it mean if you start early?

 
+4

This usually happens after 40, with some women going later. This is when your body stops producing eggs and the ovaries shut down and stop creating estrogen. I personally know someone that went into menopause in her early 20's. Doctors refused to diagnose the early menopause, she cannot have children, and must take hormone supplements.
