How is menopause related to your sexual experiences and the number of children you've had? I have never taken any contraceptives before in my life.
The amount of sex you have had, the number of sexual partners, and the number of children will not affect your menopause. A virgin will get a menopause the same way that a woman with 15 children will get one.
The fact that you have not taken hormonal contraceptives (birth control) means that there is nothing interfering with the process of your menstrual cycle, so this is more of a factor - sometimes women who are taking hormonal contraceptives have some confusion around the start of the menopause because it's harder to tell when it is starting.
Your history indicates that you have normal fertility, no interfering factors, and will experience a normal menopause in the same way as any other woman who is not taking hormonal medication.
I hope that has answered your question satisfactorily, but please let me know if there is something I have not understood from you
