A new study takes into account a woman’s lifestyle as an indicator of when she could enter menopause.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK - JUNE 14: Guests join Naomi Watts to celebrate a preview of her beauty and wellness menopause brand, Stripes, launching this October. A new study suggests doctors may be able to predict when a woman will enter menopause, taking into account a range of indicators aside from age.
Researchers found that elevated levels of follicle-stimulating hormone and estradiol, abnormal periods, andare indicators that a woman is nearing menopause. To further help calculate an age, researchers also took into account the woman’s lifestyle including alcohol intake, use of hormone contraceptives, smoking habits, relationship status, and physical fitness.
"Accurately predicting age at natural menopause would better inform how we counsel women regarding multiple issues, including cardiovascular risk, family planning and contraception, and management of perimenopause issues such as irregular or heavy menstrual bleeding, vasomotor symptoms, and mood changes," she continued.
