Menopause causes hormonal changes affecting skin aging, including dryness and wrinkles. Hormone replacement therapy can improve skin but has risks, leading to interest in non-hormonal treatments like laser therapy.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Endocrinology
  • Gerontology

Context:

  • Menopause is characterized by significant hormonal shifts, impacting various physiological processes.
  • Postmenopausal skin undergoes distinct histological and clinical alterations due to hormonal decline.

Purpose:

  • To review literature on postmenopausal skin changes.
  • To analyze the efficacy of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in mitigating skin aging.
  • To explore non-hormonal alternatives for managing menopausal skin issues.

Summary:

  • Declining estrogen and progesterone levels during menopause lead to epidermal thinning, reduced collagen, and altered sebum production.
  • HRT can improve dermal thickness, collagen content, and skin elasticity, but carries risks like increased cancer incidence.
