His answer is kinda crap, to boot. Menopause isn't triggered by the number of menstrual cycles, but by age.

- AstralStorm 9y agoHow do you know that? It is and a cop out answer because age is not a mechanism. Specifics please?
- Simon_says 9y agoI apologize. It turns out my intuition was wrong about this. I just assumed that menopause was triggered by age, and I was going to look for evidence that age of menopause doesn't correlate with number of pregnancies, but it turns out it does! Childless women hit menopause earlier, on average. So, I guess I don't know.
