[quote=Anonymous]Perimenopause is really unpredictable and many women don't notice the start, so not sure it's a good guide. I've read that the rule of thumb for the end of fertility is about 10 years prior to menopause. Your mother is often a reasonable guide for when you can expect menopause. For most women, there is a point where fertility takes a steep decline - often its in their early 40s, but it can be significantly earlier (generally, not a whole lot later). Egg quality is another aspect that I don't think necessarily is tied to hormone levels. Younger women with DOR, who are likely to enter menopause on the early side, may still have pretty good egg quality, whereas older women with hormone levels more like someone much younger still can have significant issue with egg quality, that affects fertility negatively.[/quote]
