Hi I am a 49 year old woman, in good health- good weight, exercise daily, mostly healthy diet- and i am starting to experience some symptoms of perimenopause- irregular periods, mood swings, insomnia, hot flashes. I have noticed lately that my chest is very red. It gets worse when I exercise and spreads to my shoulders. Is this a perimenopausal symptom, or something I need to get checked out? I also have eczema on my upper back that is driving me crazy!! My dermatologist gave me a very strong steroid cream but it barely helps. Could this be related? (The reddened area of my chest is not itchy or uncomfortable, just embarrassing.)
