Manage episode 483998567 series 3624636
Jess explores the often-overlooked symptom of menopause: itchy ears. Drawing from a recent personal experience, she researched its causes and the hormonal changes at play, specifically the decline of estrogen, which affects skin hydration in our ear canals.
Jess discusses how dryness, environmental factors, and skin sensitivities can exacerbate this discomfort, alongside personal insights on allergies and eczema. Throughout the episode, Jess aims to demystify the science of itching, provide practical management tips, and emphasize the importance of self-care.
By sharing her journey, Jess hopes to foster awareness and empower women to navigate this less-discussed aspect of menopause with confidence and understanding.
