I'm 59-years young - and post menopausal- I use a estrogen patch (low dose n take a 100 mg progesterone pill daily. I don't smell fresh after showering! I constantly worry a/b BO; of course skin is losing elasticity very quickly..hair is getting thin-- I cannot smell perfume afer putting it on my skin. Could these changes be because of hormonal changes?
