What roles does estrogen play in promoting the growth and strength of hair and nails and how does hormonal imbalance influence the health and appearance of these structures?
Estrogen helps in promoting keratin production, a key component for strong hair and nails. Hormonal imbalances can weaken keratin, making hair and nails brittle.
Estrogen helps regulate hair growth by extending the growth phase, enhancing thickness. It also strengthens nails. Hormonal imbalances can lead to hair thinning and brittle nails.
