The best menopause skin care with Dr. Joel Schlessinger

Menopause and dry skin

Menopause comes in waves, and in fact, many of its symptoms can take people by surprise. Think of it in three stages.

The first stage, known as peri-menopause, takes effect leading up to menopause. Once a full year without a menstrual cycle takes place, menopause is in effect. Next, you’ll experience post-menopause.

During each of these periods, your natural estrogen levels decline, leading to symptoms such as dry skin, uneven tone and texture and overall dullness. If you’re at this stage in your life, and feel menopause could be the culprit for your skin concerns, look to these products to help.
