InterLACE project leader Professor Gita Mishra said obesity played a significant role in the findings. She was quoted as saying, "Women who experienced early menstruation and were overweight or obese in midlife had a two times greater risk of frequent hot flushes and night sweats, compared with women who experienced their first period aged 14 years or older, and had normal weight."

"These findings encourage women with early menstruation to engage in health promotion programs, especially weight management in adulthood," the professor added.
