There are many reasons why menopause would occur before the average age of 51yrs. Smoking can 'speed up' menopause by ~5 yrs and cause stronger menopausal symptoms, medical procedures such as a hysterectomy can also cause menopause, some medication can also trigger menopause but symptoms usually disappear after you're done the medication.

Premature Ovarian Failure can also trigger menopause in women as early as 30 yrs old.

Peri-menopause or early menopause,is marked by sporadic ovulation and menstruation. If ovulation is still occurring it is best to use a condom if you wish to avoid pregnancy.
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.
No. Smoking is an independent variable which has not been shown, conclusively, to affect the timing of menopause onset.
Most women go through menopause between the ages of 45 and 55, with the average age being 51. However, menopause can occur earlier (before 40) in some cases, referred to as premature menopause. The transition period leading up to menopause is called perimenopause.
because women attain menopause much earlier than men...
Usually woman experience perimenopause and menopause (I call it PM&M for short!) beginning in their forties or fifties. Some women experience it earlier than 40. This is what we call premature menopause. Premature menopause can be due to genetic makeup, an illness, or medical procedure. There is a lot of information out there about PM&M.
The weight gain typically occurs just following menopause itself. There are a variety of hormonal changes occurring at the same time, leading the typical symptoms of menopause (hot-flashes, cramps, migraines, etc).
Menopause is a natural process that marks the end of a woman's menstrual cycles, typically occurring in her late 40s or early 50s. During menopause, the ovaries stop releasing eggs and hormone levels change, leading to symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and changes in menstrual patterns.
Until around fifty it is not true that if a women get her period early in life she will go through menopause earlier
A total hysterectomy is only the removal of the uterus and cervix and therefore as the ovaries remain menopause will take its normal course. Average age is 51.7 years but can be earlier or later. If you have a bilateral oopherectomy, then you will be placed in immediate surgical menopause as there are no ovaries to produce estrogen. Speak to your doctor/surgeon regarding hormone replacement and its advantages and disadvantages.
Usually only if you have ovaries removed at sam time (oopherectomy)
Women go through through menopause when their body runs out of eggs to fertilize, and their periods cease. Since everybody has their own biological clock, it happens to different women at different stages of their life. Usually women go through menopause in their 50s-60s, but there are many exeptions to that.P.S. 'Menopause' is not a verb.
