Vaginal dryness and dry skin caused by a decrease in oestrogen before menopause are common complaints among women.
Getting eight glasses of water a day can help maintain your skin’s moisture and offset dryness.
Drinking water also helps decrease the bloating that occurs with the hormonal changes that occur during the peri-menopause.
