I have developed eczema type skin itching and swelling around my eyelids, lips and neck over the last year and am having trouble working out what is to blame. Could menopausal changes in hormones be related?

Dear Clare,

Thank you for your question. Yes it may happen but it may also be unrelated. You need to have it treated and you may benefit from a patch test. You need to see your dermatologist for this. You can read more about eczema treatment and patch test on my website https://www.alexandroff.org.uk/

I hope this is helpful.
