On average, menopause occurs at 51 years of age. This is only an average, and many women go through menopause earlier or later than that. It can occur anywhere between 40 and 60 years of age. If it is earlier than 40, then it is considered early menopause.
Some women go through menopause because of surgery or because it's chemically induced. Women who smoke tend to go through menopause a little earlier than others.
Menopause is said to occur after 12 consecutive months with no period.
