Why Use Natural Menopause Itchy Skin Treatment?
Our Menopause Expert Doctor at Almasi Skincare offers natural menopause itchy skin treatment that does not use HRT (hormone replacement therapy) because the side effects of hormone replacement therapy include developing breast cancer, endometrial cancer, stroke, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary thrombosis, breast pain, vaginal bleeding, gall bladder disease, bloating, nausea, diarrhea, headache, mood changes, muscle cramps, skin rash, itchy skin, hives, and allergic reactions.
Consequently, our natural menopause itchy skin treatment does not use HRT. It uses nutrition, supplements and lifestyle modifications.

What Causes Menopause Itchy Skin?
Itchy skin is thought to develop due to the declining estrogen levels which result in less natural oils and collagen which results in thinner, drier skin that is less elastic and can be itchy. This usually develops around the vulva but it can also develop on the face and other parts of the body.
Natural Menopause Itchy Skin Treatment
To treat menopause itchy skin naturally, do the following:
Take an oatmeal bath
An oatmeal bath relieves itchy skin and soothes the skin. To prepare an oatmeal bath, add colloidal oatmeal to a tub filled with lukewarm water and soak in it for 15 minutes.
We recommend Aveeno Soothing Bath Treatment which contains 100% colloidal oatmeal. It can be purchased from our Nairobi Almasi Skincare Shop located on Moi Avenue, Sawa Mall, 3rd floor, Shop C15. Call 0721963156 or WhatsApp +254 721 963 156 to order. We deliver countrywide/worldwide.
.
Use non-drying body cleansers
Use body cleansers that clean the skin without stripping its moisture.
We recommend Dove Soap. It can be purchased from our Nairobi Almasi Skincare Shop located on Moi Avenue, Sawa Mall, 3rd floor, Shop C15. Call 0721963156 or WhatsApp +254 721 963 156 to order. We deliver countrywide/worldwide.
.
Avoid hot showers
Avoid hot showers and long baths since they tend to dry the skin. Instead bathe with lukewarm water for not more than 15 minutes and moisturize the skin immediately after patting it dry with a soft towel.
Use effective body moisturizers
Apply effective moisturizers within 3 minutes of drying the skin after bathing to lock moisture in the skin.
We recommend Nationwide Emulsifying Ointment as it does not contain fragrances or dyes which can irritate the skin. It can be purchased from our Nairobi Almasi Skincare Shop located on Moi Avenue, Sawa Mall, 3rd floor, Shop C15. Call 0721963156 or WhatsApp +254 721 963 156 to order. We deliver countrywide/worldwide.
.
Eat A Soy-Rich Diet
Eat soy-rich foods since they contain isoflavones which act like estrogen in the body by binding to estrogen receptors.
To get started with soy, add 1 tablespoon of roasted, ground soya beans to a cup of warm milk. Roasted, ground soya can be purchased from our Nairobi Almasi Skincare Shop located on Moi Avenue, Sawa Mall, 3rd floor, Shop C15. Call 0721963156 or WhatsApp +254 721 963 156 to order. We deliver countrywide/worldwide.
.
Consume foods with phytoestrogens
Consume other phytoestrogen-rich foods since they act like estrogen in the body. Flaxseeds contain the highest amounts of phytoestrogens. To increase their intake, add ground flaxseeds to smoothies, cereal, granola, salads and soups. Sesame seeds are also rich in phytoestrogens and they can be added to smoothies, salads, stir fries, cereal, granola, rice dishes, and soups. Fruits that are rich in phytoestrogens include dried fruits like dates, prunes and dried apricots as well as fresh peaches, pears, plums, strawberries, and blackberries. Vegetables that are rich in phytoestrogens include broccoli, cabbage, spinach, collard greens, and beans. Herbs that are rich in phytoestrogens include garlic and onion.
Drink adequate water
Drink water during the day to keep the skin hydrated from within. Mayo Clinic recommends 2.7 liters per day. Ensure that you also avoid alcohol since it can have a drying effect on the skin.
