Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Five lesser-known symptoms of the menopause

Caption: Five lesser-known symptoms of the menopause. Dr Shirin Lakhani, intimate health expert with Elite Aesthetics and speaker at Pause Live! in London, has shared five symptoms that you may not know about. Brittle fingernails. You might notice that your fingernails have become weaker, and this is due to a decline in estrogen. Changes to skin texture and type. It is common for your skin to go through changes during menopause due to a loss of collagen. Electric shock sensation. If you have experienced an electric shock sensation, this is most likely due to a drop in your estrogen levels. Burning mouth syndrome. This is a symptom you have probably not heard of as there is not much research behind it. Toothache. Another surprising menopause symptom is toothache, which is another result of hormone changes. Dr Lakhani will be speaking at Pause Live!, a conference dedicated to menopause education and support, at the Business Design Centre in London on 25 November.
