Summary
 Your jawline acne keeps coming back, or your hair part is getting wider. When is it time to change what you’re doing, and when is it worth asking what’s behind the change? In this episode of As a Woman, Dr. Natalie Crawford and board-certified dermatologist Dr. Kristina Collins explain what to look for and what you can do as your skin and hair change from puberty through perimenopause. They discuss when acne might point to PMOS (formerly PCOS), what to reconsider in your skincare routine when you’re trying to conceive or pregnant, and how to tell postpartum shedding from the gradual thinning that can show up in midlife.
