In this study, we established that the age of natural menopause was lower than the findings reported by previous authors. We also found that employment status, education, history of contraceptive use, BMI, age at first and last childbirth, and parity were associated with age at natural menopause, suggesting that social, lifestyle, and reproductive factors may have an impact on menopausal age.
