I have noticed in personal experience that there is a changing in the healing process with hormone levels. I suffer from endometriosis, and after lengthy discussions with my doctor I decided to accept Lupron injections as treatment for my condition. After the first round of injections I noticed my skin lost elasticity and cuts/scraps happened easier and took longer to heal. Sometime had past after treatments were finished and the oils and plumpness of my skin returned, cuts and scraps heal much more quickly again. The second round of treatments and the same thing. Its a trade off between side effects and benefits of treatments but healing is most certainly effected by estrogen levels. I am glad to see that research is being done to understand this process more in depth. Who know it could lead to the fountain of youth, infinite possibilities.
