Analysis of the Effect of Serum Estradiol Concentration on Facial Skin Moisture, Pore Width, Discoloration and Smoothness in 16- to 50-Year-Old Women at the 5th and 25th Days of the Menstrual Cycle

Conclusions: Skin moisture was related to the concentration of estradiol only in the oldest examined group of women regardless of the phase of menstrual cycle. In the 40- to 50-year-old group of women, the low level of estradiol on the 25th day of the cycle is better used to maintain a good facial skin appearance and has a positive influence not only on skin moisture, but also on pore width and skin smoothness.Skin Pharmacol Physiol 2019;32:125 –131
