Menopause, hormones, and their effects on the skin

Menopause is a crucial stage in the life of women. Its impacts go well beyond the reproductive function; menopause triggers important changes in all body systems, including the skin. In fact, skin concerns related to menopause changes are a frequent topic in dermatology offices. To provide the best care to these women, we need to understand the hormonal background of this phenomenon and know which symptoms to expect and how to address them. Here, we will cover the progression from perimenopause to menopause, understanding the symptoms and the physiology behind them, and we will address the skin and hair repercussions of menopause, along with strategies to empower women in their management. Join us to improve your dermatological care of menopausal women! This activity is supported by an independent support grant from Vichy Laboratoires
