I would say that you're probably fine. Unless your already having a lot of perimenopause (sp??) symptoms or have a family history of early menopause. I would also think you'd have a good number of years ahead of you.
If you want to be sure just do a few quick calculations. Figure out how much the Keeper would cost you exactly (it's usually about $50-$60 Canadian) and how much you spend on tampons/pads each month (that probably varies a lot between individuals based on brands you prefer and individual cycle). I would think you'd probably have the Keeper paid for within a year or two at the most....
