Hello my beautiful Lady Gardens — it’s Wednesday, Hormonal Hump Day, and let me tell you… that title could not be more accurate for me today.

I’ve got my period. I’ve cried about ten times. I wanted to murder my husband because he was brushing his teeth too loudly — so let’s just say I am emotionally unhinged and the day isn’t even over yet.

Now, have you ever had that weird, creepy-crawly feeling on your skin — like something’s crawling on you, but there’s absolutely nothing there?

Or maybe your skin just feels itchy as hell for no reason?

Well ladies, here’s the thing: oestrogen isn’t just about moods, boobs, and babies — it also plays a huge role in collagen production and skin hydration. When our oestrogen drops during perimenopause and menopause, our skin becomes drier, thinner, and itchier.

So if you’re scratching like a flea-ridden cat and wondering what’s wrong — it might not be the laundry detergent… it might just be your hormones.

Happy Hormonal Hump Day, my loves — hydrate, moisturise, and try not to commit husband-related homicide.
