Leena,I share your feeling of looking forward to menopause. I have suffered from menstrual pain in all my life before cancer. Since the treatment,I just had period twice and no more. I am glad that the menopause steps early since I need not suffer from period pain any longer. What makes me even happier is that I don't go through those menopause symptoms(can last a few years)which my friends complain about. A 'good' side effect of treatment! :p

Karen.
