Estrogen helps maintain skin elasticity, moisture, and thickness. During menopause, declining estrogen can lead to drier, thinner skin and changes in hair texture or increased hair loss.
Options:
Gentle, fragrance-free moisturizers can help with skin dryness.
Staying hydrated and using mild cleansers that don’t strip natural oils.
For hair changes, gentle hair care products and avoiding excessive heat styling may help.
