Crawling Feelings Under the Skin
Decoding Perimenopausal
What does it feel like?
A tingling or prickling sensation, often described as 'pins and needles' or itching without a rash.
Known as formication, it’s linked to declining estrogen, which affects nerve sensitivity.
Why does this happen during perimenopause?
How can you manage or sooth this symptom?
Magnesium and B-complex vitamins support nerve health. Relaxation techniques like mindfulness or acupuncture may also help. Topical cooling gels can provide temporary relief.
