Hello. I'm 50 years old female and about three years ago I entered in my menopause period. Believe me- you don’t have to be a doctor to tell when you are entering this period because the numerous symptoms you start to suffer from.
Some of these are low metabolism, instable blood sugar, water retention, hot flashes and vaginal dryness. I didn’t use any medications because I have heard that can cause several bad side effects. But the thing that is bothering me the most is the fact that I'm getting but-ugly. Believe me- it’s true. I got these deep lines in a face and my skin isn’t so smooth as it was before. Please tell me is this common and is there any sure?

I understand you completely because I have experienced almost the same symptoms when I was entering my menopause. It is a common menopause problems and almost every woman will experience it.
You see, I have used several body lotions and face creams but nothing could help me.
I talked with my doctor about this and he told me all this that it is a common menopause problem and that I could use some antioxidant pills to relieve my symptoms. So, I started taking them and the effect is already visible after two weeks of using. But, if you think that your youth with return- forget about it.
Beside these pills I recommend some mild hormone replacement therapy and of course, frequent face lifting treatments.

Sad to the 50 y/o w/menopause. am also 50 and separated for 10 years and wanted to get into a relationship, but after seeing how ugly and fat i've become it's useless. no man in his right mind would look at me ONCE! NO lotions, creams nothing works. i scare myself. why has God so damned women is beyond me. extremely depressed what reason is there 2 even live and have 2 look at myself become an old ugly tired dried up bag. men age so nice and go for young girls and i don't even blame them cause i sure suck. exercise doesn't help will lose 5-10 lbs and then it comes back. aging sucks. there should b research 4 a cure 4 menopause.
