It is estimated that almost half of women experience skin issues during menopause. Reduced production of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, and increased production of cortisol during this period are responsible for the inevitable skin changes that women face.

Some things we might notice:

  • Dryness and Itching
  • Delicate skin
  • Acne
  • Flushing
  • Facial hair
  • Melasma
  • Facial changes

    The startling one for me was the facial changes due to potential bone loss and thinning skin…like visible veins along the temples…ugh when did that happen???
