Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am 31 years old this year. Six months ago, I had an ovarian cyst surgery (with the ovaries preserved intact), and since then, I have noticed an increase in facial pigmentation and deeper wrinkles around my eyes. It seems like I am aging very quickly. Is this a sign of declining estrogen levels in my body?Doctor's answer:
