The term perimenopuse is something you may have heard being used recently, celebrities like Davina McCall are talking around the subject in some detail. This term is referring to the transition between normal periods and the menopause, it can start upto 10 years before the menopause even starts!

During this transition stage your body produces less oestrogen which creates an imbalance within your hormones which is responsible for making you feel ‘out of sorts’

In addition to the above symptoms associated with perimenopause Collagen production is closely linked to oestrogen levels, and therefore as oestrogen drops, so does collagen formation.

As perimenopause hits, your skin can be impacted due to the aforementioned decrease in oestrogen, which causes collagen levels to drop. The result? Reduced collagen leads to diminished elasticity and skin strength.
