Menopause is something that every woman is going to have to go through at some point in her life, but it can be especially difficult if you get it early on in life. Most women go through menopause in their forties, but these days there are some women who have the onset of menopause as early as their late twenties.
It is therefore very important that all women take the time to learn as much about the causes of early menopause and the symptoms of early onset menopause, as well as all the other details. This way they are going to be much more likely to be able to tell whether or not it is menopause that they are dealing with or something else.
Menopause can be challenging enough but when you don’t even know what you are dealing with, it can be confusing and easy to get lost. There are a few ways that you can determine pretty much all on your own whether or not you are dealing with early onset menopause or if it is something else that you are going to have to see your doctor about.
Signs and Symptoms
More than anything, there are a few signs and symptoms which are closely associated with early onset menopause and which you are going to want to be aware of and watch out for. Remember, if you ever start experiencing these symptoms yourself, you are going to want to talk to your doctor and let them know that you think you have early onset menopause.
One of the most common symptoms that women going through early onset menopause experience is vaginal dryness. They start to notice that they do not have as much natural lubrication as they once did, and this can obviously cause problems in their sex life. This is one of the most noticeable symptoms that women experience.
Another symptom of early onset menopause is a cessation of the woman’s menstrual cycle. Often time women who start going through menopause at an especially early age first assume that they are pregnant, because their period is late and they are certainly not expecting for it to be menopause. Once your doctor rules out pregnancy however, their next guess will be that you are going through menopause. They will then be able to perform a few tests to figure out whether their assumption here is correct.
