Hello Hormones with Dr. Carrie Jones
Have you hit midlife and suddenly everything feels dry, itchy, or irritated in places that make no sense? Your inner ears itch. Your shins itch. Your scalp itches. Your eyes feel dry and scratchy. Your back has that one spot you cannot reach. Even your private areas may feel itchy when there is no obvious infection, rash, or clear reason why. In this episode of Hello Hormones, I'm breaking down why this may not be solved by more lotion, more water, or another steroid cream. As estradiol and progesterone shift in midlife, your skin barrier, oils, mast cells, histamine response, inflammation, and nerve sensitivity can all change, which may explain why itching can come and go, show up in random places, or feel worse at night. I also walk through options to talk about with your healthcare provider, whether you are using hormones, not ready for hormones, or looking for additional support. We get into ceramides, urea cream, omega-3s, borage oil, black currant seed oil, quercetin, vitamin C, DAO enzymes, sea buckthorn oil, castor oil, warm compresses, and what to rule out when itching could be coming from something other than hormones. What's Discussed: (00:00) Why midlife can make everything feel dry, itchy, and irritated in random places. (00:25) Why lotion and water may not be the whole answer. (01:15) How estradiol, progesterone, aging, and the skin barrier are connected. (02:34) The mast cell and histamine connection behind itching. (03:23) Why itching can show up without a rash, infection, or obvious cause. (06:03) Skin barrier support options like ceramides, urea cream, omega-3s, borage oil, and black currant seed oil. (10:08) Histamine and dry-eye support, including quercetin, vitamin C, DAO, sea buckthorn oil, castor oil, screen support, and warm compresses. If midlife has made your skin, eyes, ears, or private areas feel dry and itchy for no clear reason, this episode will help you understand what may be happening and what options you can discuss with your provider. ✍️ FREE GUIDES: * Top 7 Perimenopause Myths You Need to Stop Believing ASAP: drcarriejones.com/myths [http://www.drcarriejones.com/myths] * Hormones 101 Cheat Sheet: drcarriejones.com/hormones101 [https://www.drcarriejones.com/hormones101] * The Perimenopause & Menopause Labs Test Checklist: https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbThWS0laOHdEX3FFczd3U3V0VDBDNldKeTBKQXxBQ3Jtc0tuUzdYSTdFSW9YYXpBVG13WXo3eEdaYjFVVkJSU2tlQ1AtaV9ueFhEZnhQSmFMQ3IwVHlSR1FQRGVBcHZTTlZxSnQyQXNvNDNhY25vZC14OV9YZ0FFbVlhejBHTXVCWGo1RXU3MzVKdnA2Q2UwQWRLZw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdrcarriejones.ck.page%2Flabtestchecklist&v=a6UNVb7BiMIdrcarriejones.com/labs [https://www.drcarriejones.com/labs] * The 101 on Stress, Cortisol And Your Nervous System Ebook: drcarriejones.com/stressfreebie [https://www.drcarriejones.com/stressfreebie] * Which Stage of Perimenopause Am I In?
