What age should i expect to experience menopause?

Varies: The average age is around 50, but some women experience it as early as 45 and others as late as 56. Rarely women experience it even earlier.

Variable!: The average age of menopause is 51-52 years of age. The definition of menopause is no period for 12 months. That being said, symptoms that we attribute to menopause (hot flashes, vaginal dryness, irregular cycles) start to occur in your late 30's / early 40's. If you are concerned about specific symptoms, ask your doctor!
