Premature or Early Menopause

Premature menopause is said to have occurred if your periods stop before the age of 40 years.  This can occur naturally or as a result of chemotherapy, radiotherapy or surgery.  An early menopause may be associated with more severe symptoms and with higher risks of fracture and heart problems.
