Actually, it can start in your early 30s or in your 60s. It really isn't a magical thing. It is estrogen dominance. As our bodies age, progesterone production decreases more than estrogen production does. Couple that natural occurrence with the onslaught of phyto and xeno-estrogens in the life of the 21st century woman, and you can even see symptoms of estrogen dominance as young as 20! These extra estrogens in our lives are in anything soy, parabens, phenoxyethenol, and many other added chemicals. They are releases by microwaving in plastic, washing your hair, doing you laundry, and a host of other ways. We are being attacked by them. You friend must be living a fairly estrogen free lifestyle to still have no symptoms of estrogen dominance. But, then again, is she? I was 45 when I started realizing the my tiredness, weight gain, irregular periods, bloating, sleeplessness, liver pains and other symptoms were more than just aging. I started taking USP Progesterone (Progestelle brand) which is sold over the counter, and most of the symptoms went away within a month. I then started getting rid of the estrogens that were excess in my household, make my own laundry detergent, avoid all soy and even flax, no caffeine, and many other items on the lists, and feel much better. Every woman should educate herself on what menopause is - estrogen dominance, and live a lifestyle in preparation for the body changes which happen as we age. Dr. John Lee and Dr. William Eckhart, both MDs, are very well versed and you can find their literature and more by searching on the internet. It is well worth the education now! I wish I had known this about 10 years ago.

Natural menopause occurs as your ovaries stop producing hormones. It usually occurs between the ages of 48 and 55, with the average at about 51 and a half years. However, if it is induced menopause which occurs when a woman has her ovaries surgically removed or when ovaries stop functioning, it can happen at any age.
