The average age the menopause occurs in women in the UK is 51, and it is deemed to be menopause when periods have stopped for a whole year.
Symptoms of the menopause usually begin around 45, this is known as the perimenopause, but some women do face early menopause from age 40-45. Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) is categorised as anyone who goes through the menopause under the age of 40. If you think that you may be going the menopause or experiencing menopausal symptoms, a Menopause Profile may be the test for you to provide the confirmation you need to look at next steps.
