@themenopausederm: I get this question all the time: Will systemic hormone therapy help my skin? The answer is, it can. Systemic estrogen has been shown to support skin hydration, reduce collagen breakdown, increase collagen production and potentially improve the appearance of wrinkles. If you’re starting hormone therapy, pay attention to your skin. You may notice changes in how it looks and feels along the way. Our skin is hormone-responsive, and this is another example of why I believe the skin-hormone connection deserves more attention. What changes have you noticed in your skin since starting hormone therapy? Educational only. Not medical advice. #hormonetherapy #hrt #menopause #perimenopause #womenover40
