menopause
it depends on the amount of eggs she has. american girls get their period roughly 450 times in their life, give or take. its possible that she will acheive menopause earlier in life. my mom started her period at 16, shes now 50 and she still has her period. it depends on the person.

menopause
no, its a fact that if you start your period earlier your menopause come later in life, whereas, if you start, say at 17, you will probably start your menopause at about 49, i remember learning this in a science lesson and i was mortified because i thought it was really harsh because those girls cant have babies for as long, but the age i am now, i wish i had started my periods at 18, because then i would have had 2 years of free sex! but no you will have a longer period life the younger you are when you start, hope this helps, xx
