Your gynecologist is the best person to ask. But, generally speaking, since you have your ovaries, you can expect to see the early signs of perimenopause in the next four years or so.
Most women begin perimenopause in their 50s. As levels of estrogen rise and fall unevenly, the menstrual cycle becomes irregular. Other symptoms include vaginal dryness, hot flashes and mood swings.
You have reached menopause when you have not had a period for 12 consecutive months.
