The Estrogen-Collagen Connection
Estrogen is vital for maintaining the structural framework of your Skin, Bones, and Joints.
🌿 Skin: Estrogen activates fibroblasts and supports hyaluronic acid to keep skin plump and hydrated. Women may lose up to 30% of skin collagen in the first five years after menopause, causing thinner, drier, more wrinkled skin.
🌿 Joints & Bones: Joint and ligament tissues have estrogen receptors. As estrogen falls, joint discomfort may increase and bone density may decline.
🟢 Collagen is a protein made of amino acids. While collagen won’t alter your hormone levels, it can help manage some of the physical effects of hormonal decline by supporting bone density and skin hydration. Shop at Still-Mom for our best collagen, available in multiple flavors!
