If the ovaries are surgically removed, a woman does not have a natural source of estrogen, and she enters surgical menopause, which can also be early menopause. Early natural menopause, on the other hand, occurs if a woman stops getting her period and her estrogen production drops before she is 45.
But when these symptoms begin in your 30s, they can be downright scary. For some women, early menopause is brought on by surgery that removes the ovaries. A woman who carries a BRCA gene mutation, for example, may opt to have her ovaries and fallopian tubes taken out in a preventative salpingo-oopherectomy.
