What role does Menopause Check play in Haut?

A Menopause Check (e.g., MyBody-X) measures hormones like estradiol and progesterone, whose decline during menopause directly affects skin: reduced collagen, dryness, thinning, and increased wrinkling. The evidence for these effects comes from clinical practice and basic endocrinology, not from the specific MyBody-X studies, which are often flagged as uncitable. A single hormone test cannot reliably predict skin condition due to cycle variability, assay differences, and individual physiology. The check may offer general orientation but does not replace a medical evaluation. Recommendation: For menopausal skin changes, also consult a dermatologist and focus on lifestyle factors (diet, sun protection, moisturizing). Evidence: practice-based, not supported by MyBody-X's own data.
