When do women generally start menopause and how long does it last?
Carrie B asked:
I’m in my early 40’s and was wondering when I should be concerned about menopause. I’ve been very moody lately and just don’t feel like myself…could this be pre-menopause? What are some of the symptoms emotional and physical that accompany menopause? How long does menopause last?
50 to death

it can last years, you know there is a test at wal-mart by pregnancy test to test if you have menopause. I aunt went through it at your age. everyones different. Signs and symptoms are moody, sweating, irregular bleeding, flow change, ****** tenderness. It can happen between 40-65 and can take up to five years to actually go through the whole process. (out of my nursing book)
When I was 15 I started to have irregular periods (2 times a month or skip 2-3 months). I would always be hot (hot flashes) too. Then, at the age of 21 I was diagnosed with POF – Premature Ovarian Failure (ran out of eggs). You can say I went through premature menopause.
