Menopause at 20

[SoConfused85]

Thats right. I was first diagnosed with perimenopause at 20yoa. Now Im 25 and I am in menopause. However, no one can explain to me or maybe I dont want to understand whats going on. I didn't have any surgeries to cause this, it's not genetic, Im not on birth control, never have been pregnant, no hot flashes, no mood swings, sex drive not decreased, no symptoms except a lack of periods. Several tests has been performed and my FSH was in the menopause range. I lost weight to see if that would help, I lost 58 pounds but still nothing. Should I continue to search for answers or just accept the fact that I will never be able to conceive a child? So depressing:(

I've never know diagnosed menopause to reverse for any reason. IF your doctor has done the levels and they are in the menopause range, and it sounds like that has been done, then dealing with it is now your next move. It will mean that you can't conceive your own baby, but there are other options out there these days, like adoption and foster parenting.
You are just one of the women who this happens to at an early age. I bet there is support in one of the women's health forums on this site for you. You did nothing wrong. It just happens, and I don't know the statistics on how many women it happens to. I wish you the best in your search for answers.

Well honey first I would like to say stay encouraged, and get a second opinion if you have not already done so. also check to see if you have fibroids or cyst some time that throws you into having some of the symptoms of menopause. Good luck
