If you start menstruating at an early age, does that mean you are likely to become infertile earlier too?

Question

If you start menstruating at an early age, does that mean you are likely to become infertile earlier too?

Answer 1

not really. All women are born with a certian amount of eggs. No more are produced through out life. So it depends on how many you are born with that determines when you stop ovulating. And also health that determines it too. Like women who suffer with anorexia  (the worst form) this basically kills off most of her eggs before they are released for fertilization. I understand your question but they only answer that i can give is that there are many underlining issues that determine when you become infertile! An extremely heathly lady that has perfect eggs no fertility issues will become infertile when her eggs run out if illness dont get there first. Hope i am making sense!  

Answer 2

Generally speaking, a woman will produce a finite number of eggs in her lifetime.  It stands to reason that if that production begins early, it will end early.  (But that could be well into her 40s, when most women wouldn't want to have babies anyway, if that is a consideration.)

Answer 3

If you meant fertile, yes but it you really did meen infertile, no
