I'm a 58 y/o female, post menopause.. I've had relatively dry skin all my life, never had problem with grease or oily skin/hair. Nowadays, I've been noticing that my hair has been getting oily as well as my skin. I've tried different shampoos as well. Has anyone experienced oily skin/hair as they aged? Is it due to hormones or some other underlying cause? What have you done for it? Is it cause I drink alcohol or fatty foods?
Hi there, I doubt it's anything to do with alcohol but fatty foods can cause oily skin/hair, the main cause is likely to be your post menopausal hormones.
Have a read up on google to see what you can do, I can only think shampoo for oily hair, not sure what you can do about skin.

Hi Brit
Doubt alcohol is the cause. I am post menopausal and my skin and hair have got dryer. Do you have a problem with alcohol?
If not, don't know what else to advise except, see your gp
Kind Regards
