I got my period at age 16 so would start menopause early?

There is no evidence to suggest that getting your period at age 16 would lead to an early menopause. The average age for menopause is around 51 years old, and there is a wide range of normal variation. Some women may experience menopause earlier than this, while others may experience it later. There are a number of factors that can affect the age of menopause, including genetics, lifestyle, and overall health. If you are concerned about the age at which you may experience menopause, it is best to talk to your doctor.
