What to do about dry skin - enjoy the menopause with beautiful skin
The hormonal change during the menopause brings with it a number of side effects. Even if many people don’t realise it: The skin is often the first thing you notice.
With increasing age, it becomes thinner and less elastic. It loses moisture more quickly and becomes dry. With the right care, your skin can remain radiantly beautiful during the menopause.
What causes dry skin during the menopause?
The menopause, in which a woman transitions from her fertile to infertile phase, begins for most women in their forties and lasts around ten to fifteen years. It ends with the menopause, which occurs on average at the age of 51.
Dry skin during the menopause is related to hormonal fluctuations. The female sex hormones oestrogen and progesterone begin to decline.
Cycle fluctuations and physical changes occur. Hot flushes, irritability and mood swings are just some of the symptoms that many women now experience.
The hormonal fluctuations also cause changes to the skin. With the decrease in oestrogen, the production of collagen and elastin in the skin decreases. It also contains less hyaluronic acid, which is crucial for moisture retention. The skin becomes thinner and the skin’s barrier function decreases. Moisture is lost more quickly. The development of wrinkles is favoured.
Oestrogen production peaks around the age of 25 and then begins to decline. The first wrinkles can therefore already be visible from the age of 30.
