Early Menopause with Dr Nick Panay Ep 12
In this episode early menopause and how it is treated. Our guest is Dr Nick Panay, Consultant Gynaecologist. Early menopause occurs when periods stop before the age of 45, which probably affects about 10-15% of women. If this happens before the age of 40, it’s known as premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), which affects about 1% of women. We don’t know the exact figures as often women aren’t presenting with this problem. They don’t think an irregularity of periods is due to early menopause, particularly when they’re very young. We often put these things down to stress, changes in weight, or polycystic ovarian syndrome (POS).
