Supplementation

“My skin suddenly felt dried out – no matter how much cream I used.” Many women describe their first skin changes during menopause in similar words. What used to feel soft, elastic, and easy to care for now feels dry, thinner, or more sensitive. Some notice small cracks, itching, or a feeling of tightness – often without immediately understanding the cause. What many don’t know: the skin is one of the organs that reacts particularly strongly to hormonal changes. Estrogen, in particular, plays a central role in the health and structure of the skin. As estrogen levels drop with the onset of menopause, a new phase also begins for the skin. If your skin changes, it’s not a sign of neglect – it’s the expression of a natural process. That’s why it’s all the more important to understand what’s happening in your body, the role hormones play, and how you can actively support your skin.

Menopause is often described as a time of change, but one crucial transformation that doesn’t get enough attention is its impact on bone health. Declining oestrogen levels can significantly affect your skeleton, leading to a loss of bone density and an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
