Muscle & Joint Pains, 
Hair & Skin Changes

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.
 

Does menopause also affect skin, nails and hair

Women often complain of thin dry skin, brittle nails and loss of hair following menopause. It is wrong to assume that these observations are merely manifestations of female vanity because these subjective changes actually occur due to generalized loss of collagen. This loss of connective tissue is responsible for causing thin translucent inelastic skin in the older woman.
