Ways To Detect Early Menopause To Help Infertility

Posted on Tue May 26, 2009 New Ways To Detect Early Menopause Will Help Infertility Treatments
Scientists have recently discovered a way of testing women for early menopause which may then help to improve infertility treatments in these women. Researchers in the Netherlands analyzed genetic data from 9 studies that involved 10,339 menopausal women. The researchers discovered 20 changes in the genetic code associated with early menopause. "We found that the 20 were all related to a slightly earlier menopause, and women who had one of them experienced menopause nearly a year earlier than others," one of the researchers said. "We know that 10 years before menopause women are much less fertile, and five years before many are infertile. In Western countries, where women tend to have children later in life and closer to menopause, age at menopause can be an important factor in whether or not a particular woman is able to become a mother." Detecting early menopause may help women to decide when to have children and help increase their odds with infertility treatments.
