I've a cat I took responsibility for a year ago. He is now 2 years old. He was 'fixed' before I got him. He was never declawed. He is usually REALLY good about not scratching furniture or things he shouldn't. Until Saturday morning. I left my closet open a crack, and he is a curious fellow, and loves the closet for some reason.
Defects in the chromosomes can cause premature menopause. For example, women with Turner's syndrome are born without a second X chromosome or without part of the chromosome. The ovaries don't form normally, and early menopause is often the result.
Some sources designate the age of 45 as the cutoff, and label any menopause occurring prior to age 45 as âearlyâ. Early menopause is a little different from âpremature menopauseâ , in that premature menopause is one that occurs prior to the age of 40. This is also called âpremature ovarian failureâ.
