Muscle
& Joint Pains,
Are muscle and joint pain also due to menopause Frequent muscle and joint pain may
also have the same etiology. The role of collagen loss from the bone matrix
in the etiology of postmenopausal osteoporosis may be of fundamental importance.
Many women complain of pain in the joints, especially in the knees around
the time of menopause.

This loss of connective tissue is responsible for causing thin translucent inelastic skin in the older woman. To add your views on this article or read others comments Click Here
