Early Symptoms Of Menopause
64Early Menopause Symptoms
Menopause is a period in woman's life time when her ovaries stop to produce eggs and when her menstrual cycle stops. Early menopause occurs to most of the women in their 30s or even in 20s. If your period cycle stops before the age of 45, then it will be known as early menopause. If your ovary stops producing eggs before this age or if you are experiencing hormonal changes or if your ovaries have been damaged or removed by surgery for any other reason, then you will have early menopause.
If you do not have periods for more than a year, then you will be considered as a woman undergoing menopause. The premature ovary failure surely results in early menopause. Premature ovary failure does not mean that your ovary stops producing eggs but it generally means that your ovary is not responding to hormone changes. So even if you experience early menopause, there is chance of getting pregnant. It is proved in research that 20 % women who had early menopause had become pregnant.
Early menopause may produce physical as well as emotional symptoms in the woman. Irregular periods, night sweats, vaginal dryness, sudden weight gain in hip, skin irritation and itching, hair loss, hair growth in face, severe head ache, body pain, joint pain, dryness in mouth and change in the smell of the body are the physical symptoms of menopause.
The woman experiencing menopause may have memory loss, irritability, anxiety, confusion, lack of concentration and some other emotional symptoms. She may feel deserted and get angry soon. Most of the American women who experience early menopause are suffering from hot flashes. Hot flash means a hot prickly feeling in the back. Vitamin supplements can reduce the hot flash.
Another important thing in early menopause is that many women are facing infertility problems. Even if you do not have any other symptoms, you will not be able to get pregnant due to early menopause.
Some women are experiencing the trouble of vaginal dryness in early menopause. This is very uncomfortable. Vaginal dryness occurs because of the decreasing level of estrogen. The estrogen decreasing may also cause abnormal hair growth in face. This will upset most women.
Most of the women experience bladder control problems. That means most women experiencing early menopause may want to pass urine frequently and most urgently. If you face any serious problem in bladder control, you should consult the doctor. Frequent urine passing may be a symptom of Diabetes also. Some women face sleeping problems in their early menopause period. Some others feel nervousness and heart beating faster. Sudden weight gain in the waist and tenderness in the breast may also be the symptoms of early menopause.

The photo was taken a while ago and I always seem to look younger in pics but many thanks for the compliment!
Sue Huss, there is no set age or time frame when menopause automatically starts; it is different for every woman. On average, women start going through menopause around in the age of 50. However it can began as early as 51 and as late as age 59 - if not earlier or later. In fact, women can start experiencing the physical and hormonal effects - such as aging skin - as early as their 20s and 30s. I think women of all ages should understand menopause because it is inevitable!!
Unfortunatley Im one of those women that have entered menopause in my 20's- I was finally just diagnosed this past month at age 28- Im actully almost post menopause. It explains a lot of the feelings Ive had the last 7 years. I even got to the place of being suicidal b/c I didnt know what was happening to me. All that to say- IM soo relieved to finally have concrete answers. the only downside is Im infertile- but Im still at such a raw place of trying to get my feet on the ground I havnt had a chance to grieve the children I wont bear. I probably wont for a year or two. anyway- feels goods to vent. To all you youthful(in age) menopausal's- I hear ya!
