Female Dermatology
Female's skin is delicate and is influenced by hormonal, physiological, and lifestyle factors, including those related to puberty, pregnancy, menopause, and aging.
Here's why focusing on female dermatology is essential:
​
1. Hormonal Influences
Hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and androgens affect woman's skin health. For instance, (1) acne during puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause; (2) melasma triggered by pregnancy or hormonal contraceptives; (3) dryness and thinning of skin post-menopause.
​
2. Pregnancy-related Conditions
Conditions like stretch marks, pigmentation changes, and pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy require specialized care.
​
3. Skin Disorders with Gender Disparities
Certain conditions like lupus or autoimmune-related alopecia are more common in women. Women's immune systems react differently to dermatological diseases, requiring tailored approach.​
