HealthDay (8/25, Reinberg) reports “the length of your monthly menstrual cycle may provide clues about the severity of symptoms you’ll experience during menopause and when it will start,” according to a studypublished in the journal Menopause. Investigators “found that women with short menstrual cycles (less than 25 days) during their reproductive years were likely to experience more menopause symptoms” and “were also more likely to start menopause earlier than women with normal menstrual cycles (26 to 34 days).” The study also found “women with short cycles…were more likely to have midlife sleep problems, heart discomfort and depressive symptoms.”
