Is Amenorrhea A Symptom Of Menopause?

Hello, my name is Kim and I have a question. I am a white female age 46 smoker and I have not had my period in a year. Could this be menopause? I have several of the symptoms and wanted to know if there is a natural supplement that I would take? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Yes, amenorrhea is the most important sign of menopause besides the ovarian atrophy. On ultrasound and diminishing estrogen level in blood ..so for ultrasound and estrogen level in blood. If ovaries are both side atrophied and blood estrogen are below a critical level then it is confirmed menopause. In addition 46 is age of menopause.
