Hormonal changes added to extrinsic exposure factors, including socio-environmental and lifestyle factors, affect the quality of life of climacteric women. Symptoms during the climacteric are variable, and most women are not aware that menopause affects the skin. Among the perceived changes, there is an increase in dryness, roughness, sagging, and atrophied skin. This article reviews the relationship between exposure and menopause, focusing on helping dermatologists to guide patients on preventive care and treatments to improve skin and quality of life in menopause.
