Q: Skin Folds At Menopause

I am a 50-year-old woman, very thin ,past history of anorexia/bulimia. However, I now eat well (although still thin) at least 1600 calories a day healthy food - fruit/vegetables/cereals/whole bread/eggs/cottage/yogurt/ dried fruit/nuts.For the past 6 months I have a problem that has been getting progressively and is now so bad that I am suicidal (literally want to die) and wake up every monring crying. 6 months ago I had no problem at all. I am desperate for help. Please tell me what is going on.
This is the reason, I am developing fdrooping folds of loose skin all over my body-worst places abdomen, thighs, buttocks, butt. I could put up with this awful problem (extremley unsightly) but what I cannot put up with is the discomfort. I cannot sit without suffering from extreme discomfort due to the folds of loose which bunch together and compress each other - no matter what clothes I wear. Work has become torture and sitting in the car as well - I can barely make it to work and then stand every 2 minutes. The days have become torture. Help please

You need to see your doctor - this could be related to estrogen
