woman should go through her lifestyle and certain risk factors with her health provider to maximize her fertility capabilities. >> walsh who has spoken out about wanting to have children says her hopes of getting pregnant are dashed but when it comes to life she says she has no regrets. >> i think it's a bit of a myth and that it's this huge pressure. we're like, wait a minute. am i less than if i'm not a mother. if i'm not like a rock star in my career? i've always felt as much as i've been sort of at times in my life indecisive i go for what i want and i embrace what's in front of me. >> reporter: for "good morning america," linsey davis, abc news, new york. >> all right. joining us now is dr. jennifer ashton and joins us live from our l.a. bureau. this is your area of expertise, jen. what do you make of kate's revelation? >> first of all if that's what menopause looks like, sign me up and for a shoutout to all the millions of women who go through menopause and their story doesn't make national news, but, again, to clary, early menopause
8:14 am
age of 40 or earlier, most women will go through menopause between 45 and 55 so that's the average range, it'll differ woman to woman. >> you said early menopause isn't even really a medical term. you can -- it's premenopause. what are the causes of it? >> premature menopause so we don't totally understand but things like smoking, very, very bad for your ovaries as it is for the rest of your body, certain chemotherapy, certain types of chromosomal abnormalities associated with early or premature menopause and don't know how the environment affects it but certainly family history plays a role so something your mother, your sister goes through, it increases your chance it will happen around the same time. >> when you said chemotherapy, amy and i both nodded along that's what happened for both of us at an early age so we also heard in the radio interview with kate walsh that she was referring to the pill that she thought that was a contributing factor. could that be?
8:15 am
is that true? >> absolutely not. so, there are so many myths about the birth control pill and we really need to change that. taking birth control pills for years is not associated with premature menopause and there's no maximum amount of time that a woman can take the pill and we have to remember the silver lining with both early menopause or taking birth control pill, a dramatic reduction in the risk of breast, ovarian and uterine cancer so always have to look at both sides. >> absolutely. all right, jen, have a good time there in l.a. thanks so much for joining us. >> thanks. >> she will take your questions on twitter throughout the morning. tweet her @drjashton. >> outside with barbara corcoran. we've got three entrepreneurs getting ready for their first and barbara, you've been doing interesting stuff on "shark tank" recently and you put a big stake in a beauty and bath company. >> that was savvy naturals and the reason i decided to buy that

business is i thought they would give me my money back. >> how do you decide how much? >> it's entirely dependent upon individual. if you meet these people you would just say, you know, i'm going to make a fortune and blind faith after that. >> up against the clock. the quickest pitch you've ever gotten. >> was to me i was a waitress at a diner and my soon-to-be boyfriend walked in and said to me, you'd be great at real estate sales and gave me $1,000 to start the corcoran group and that's where i made my fortune. at the diner. >> entrepreneurs right now, entering shark stadium, mike baxter inventor of the popcorn ball and rita floyd, flat box and ellery mulock of whisker dam. i didn't know there was a big threat of foamy beverages in your beer but i guess there is. you know the drill. you'll write down how long it's going to take you to pitch

[ cheers and applause ] >> ellery, the winner of the contest. i did not know that was a need but he's proven it. receipt tashgs thanks for coming in, of course, "shark tank" will be on tonight at 9:00,:00 central.
