30%
"Women lose 30% of the collagen from their skin in the first five years after menopause, followed by a further decline of 2.1% per year for the next fifteen years.”
Dryness?
“Losing oestrogen sees skin dehydration, poorer wound healing and an impaired skin barrier function.”
Aging?
“Early studies of hormone replacement therapy looked great for preventing the signs of skin aging. But the big 5 year KEEPS trial published in 2016, found it not much better than placebo.”
