Menopause at age 30

Only 32 years old but Nelly, a French woman, has lost her period. Doctors said she was early menopause. Women with this disease are less likely to give birth.

Menopause usually occurs in women nearly 50 years of age, which is the functional stage of the endocrine glands in general and the reproductive glands in particular decline. The concentration of sex hormones in the body has declined, causing menopausal syndrome, manifested in many organs such as nerves, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, skin, hair, genital . In fact, experts also met menopause very early at age 30, as was the case with Nelly.

Nelly confided: 'When I was 18, I started taking medication to regulate menstruation, then stopped this January. Because I did not see any signs of menstruation coming back, I went to test to see if I was pregnant. Negative results. I went to a specialist examination, was treated for dysmenorrhea but had no results. After all, I went for a blood test, and the test results showed that I had early menopause. '

According to the Menopause Research Association in France, up to 1-2% of women of childbearing age are menopausal or at risk of menopause before age 40, some cases before the age of 30. The cause is rooted in Genetic or chromosomal mutations. Autoimmune disease or chemotherapy can also cause early menopause.

Accepting this disease among young people is difficult because their lives are too long. They often feel unjust.'Why is it me but not everyone else? I don't deserve it " - that is Marie, a 33-year-old woman who has had menopause for five years. However, when she learned she had a genetic mutation, she felt more relieved and decided to fight against" the "injustice " that nature has created for itself by living like a young person, even after menopause, has appointed an alternative hormone method (supplementing the lack of sex hormones). essential to stimulate ovarian function.

The ability to lead to natural conception in early menopause is 3-5%. In case of unsuccessful, they must ask for eggs. The donor's oocyte is fertilized with the husband's sperm and transplanted into the patient's uterus. They will be pregnant normally.

In France, the difficulty of finding people for eggs makes the waiting time sometimes last very long, averaging 3 to 5 years. The number of people who need to register eggs is getting longer but the number of people giving is very small and this makes many couples discouraged. Some people ask for the help of French doctors working in other countries such as Belgium, Spain, and Greece at a cost of 5,000 euros.

In addition to infertility, early menopause also has a high risk of certain diseases such as osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. Menopausal women at the age of 30 may have osteoporosis before age 40. Cardiovascular disease is also a major threat, especially atherosclerosis. The disease appears after 30 years of age, if it is not diagnosed, it is very dangerous to develop complications.
