Premature menopause is menopause that happens before the age of 40 â whether it is natural or induced. Women who enter menopause early get symptoms similar to those of natural menopause, like hot flashes, emotional problems, vaginal dryness, and decreased sex drive.
Once you stop menstruating, you will have entered menopause. Natural menopause, which happens without medical intervention, occurs in three stages: perimenopause; menopause; postmenopause; Many people confuse menopause with perimenopause. Perimenopause is the stage when a woman begins to transition into menopause.
