Why the skin during menopause, "wither"?


Leather is a complexly organized body that separates the outside world from aggressive internal environment. It synthesizes and secretes hormones which have a systemic effect on every cell of the body. In particular, aging, when gonadal function is reduced, the skin is a major source of sex hormones.

Hormones play an important role in skin physiology, but an imbalance immediately affects its state. And the excess, and lack of sex steroids leads to a number of defects that cause patients to contact the beautician.
