How you experience PMS during your reproductive years may indicate how early you begin menopause, a new study says. And that can put you at risk for serious health conditions.
It is important to note, since this is an observational study, that it cannot say that having premenstrual disorders causes early menopause. Instead, the results show that there is a correlation between the two, said senior study author Dr. Donghao Lu, an associate professor in the department of medical epidemiology and biostatistics at Karolinska Institute.
