Those into bioidentical hormones love estriol. It is a weak form of estrogen, a metabolic byproduct of the normal breakdown of the body's two stronger circulating estrogens, estrone and estradiol. Enormous quantities are necessary to preserve bone mass, but itty bitty bits dabbed on your aging face may improve the quality of your skin. A .3% topical cream, available by prescription from compounding pharmacies, was applied daily to the wrinkly faces of a group of perimenopausal ladies. Not only did skin elasticity and firmness improve after six months of use, but also wrinkle depth and pore size decreased. Skin biopsy specimens (now how much did they pay these ladies for that?) showed increased numbers of collagen fibers. Serum hormone levels did not change and there was no evidence of any systemic hormone effects, suggesting that topical estriol is safe for use in women unable to use full-dose estrogen replacement therapy. I'm unsure of how well any OTC estrogen cream product would work as they would be very limited in the allowed amount of estrogen allowed.

Not to hijack, but in addition to age spots on my hands, I've noticed this year that on my legs I now have these white spots (appears to be loss of pigmentation). These areas are smaller than a pencil eraser and when I do get a little sun at the pool, they will not tan but appear very white. What are these? I always wear at least a 15 spf, but I have an olive complexion and literally tan just by being out in the sun in 30 minutes with sunscreen. I never ever get sunburned, just tan. So what's up with these white spots?
