A member asked:

Can unusual bruises on legs be connected to menopause? they appeared a month ago and look like it was a bad leg shaving. they do not heal but somehow get worse. my period stopped 3 months ago after a year of irregular cycles and delays up to 2 months?

While some women experience more bruising as they age and some skin changes are hormone dependent, what you are describing is not a usual menopausal symptom. Please consult your doctor for further evaluation.

hard to diagnose without exam. Suggest see your MD for full investigation of cause. Good luck
