Menopause Support
Menopause Skin Support by Dr Henrietta Cook
Have you noticed skin changes during perimenopause?
Menopause isn’t just a phase, it’s a profound transformation that affects nearly every aspect of health. Whether you’re in perimenopause, menopause, or post-menopause, we are here to support you at every stage. Perimenopause can begin as early as your late 30s, bringing hormonal fluctuations that impact your skin, metabolism, mood and overall well-being.
As oestrogen levels decline, biological ageing accelerates, affecting everything from skin health to bone density, metabolism and mental clarity. As a GP, Dr Hen has been helping women with their menopausal symptoms for many years, providing expert guidance and tailored treatment plans. At Avena Clinic, we take a holistic approach, helping you manage skin changes through expert guidance, skincare, supplements and lifestyle support.
Understanding the Impact of Menopause
Menopause affects every woman differently, but common symptoms include:
-
Skin & Hair Changes – Loss of collagen and elasticity, increased dryness dullness, and thinning hair.
-
Hormonal Fluctuations – Hot flushes, night sweats, mood swings and sleep disturbances.
-
Metabolism & Weight Gain – Slower metabolism, changes in fat distribution and difficulty maintaining muscle tone.
-
Bone & Joint Health – Reduced bone density, increased risk of osteoporosis and joint pain.
-
Cognitive & Emotional Well-being – Brain fog, anxiety and changes in mental sharpness.
