Abstract
This paper presents data on the age at natural menopause and the prevalence of operative menopause in mothers of multiple births and in a matched control group of mothers of singleton children only. The age at natural menopause was significantly earlier among mothers of multiple births than among mothers of singletons. The prevalence of operative menopause was slightly higher among mothers of multiple births. Mothers of DZ unlike‐sexed twins had significantly higher rates of operative menopause than did women in the comparison group.
