Premature menopause is menopause that happens before the age of 40 — whether it is natural or induced. Some women have premature menopause because of:
- family history (genes)
- medical treatments, such as surgery to remove the ovaries
- cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy or radiation to the pelvic area
Having premature menopause puts a woman at more risk for osteoporosis later in her life. It also may be a source of great distress, since many women younger than 40 still want to have children.
