Scientists have been working on a new medication that could potentially delay or even prevent menopause, which starts on average at age 51. The newest medication in the works is an injection that would engage the anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), which regulates the development of eggs. In your 30s, the ovaries—which age faster than any other organ—start to age rapidly, and AMH levels bottom out during menopause. This newer approach would mimic the AMH protein and could extend the childbearing years and possibly delay the onset of menopause. Learn more about this delay to menopause.
