What determines the age when women begin menopause

From Helium.com ----- an article on the factors that determine when a woman will go through menopause. Oftentimes, women will go through menopause about the same age their mothers did, but not always----and many peri/menopausal women do not still have their mom's around to ask. I know my mother did not start peri/menopause until her late 40's, but by 40 I was definitely in peri/menopause (and had a hytsterectomy at 44).

  1. The age that menopause will occur to a woman will most likely be in her late 40s or early 50s (45-55) and indicates the end of the fertile stage of a woman’s life. For more info feel free to check this What age does menopause start
