Skin Changes and Its Care in Menopause

Menopause causes significant skin changes due to decreased estrogen, impacting collagen, elasticity, hydration, and barrier function, leading to issues like dryness, thinning, wrinkles, poor wound healing, and sensitivity. Hormonal imbalances may also result in acne, hirsutism, female pattern hair loss, and genitourinary syndrome of menopause. Management strategies include lifestyle changes, dermatological treatments, and possibly hormone replacement therapy, with guidance provided for clinicians to offer personalized and comprehensive care.
