I've developed intermittent scalp itching , at times moves to my face and then occasionally arms and back I am 4 years post menopausal HELP!

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Menopause Support Group.

I have the same problem: Itchy, crreepy-crawly skin all over. So my primary doctor prescribed 100 mg of Progesterone to be taken at night. I feel much better now!

Also, oatmeal baths work wonders.

I've been post menopausal for 20 years. I've had persistent scalp itching for the past several years. I asked my dermatologist about it. He says older people have nerve problems with nerve endings being more sensitive and it can cause the itching, Honestly it drives me crazy mostly at night.
