Hello, i am just 23 as well, i have same physical problems like severe muscle weakness and pain like u said. The only time i got better was when i reduced my Thyroid and cortisol, lower than above normal range like low normal. If i keep these two hormones at low normal, my physical wastage and weakness gets better. What i did was i took Ashwagandha, brahmi/bacopa, giloy powder and took it with boiled milk every morning and night. It reduced my cortisol and thyroid and my muscle wastage stopped. But then this ash, bacopa combination was giving me anhedonia so i quit that. My muscle weakness and pain has started again and i don’t know what to do.

My hand palms since PFS. They constantly feel cold and drained like after being in the swimming pool for hours. Note the wrinkle lines along the fingers.
Anyone has this? Even if i dont take a shower for 2-3 days, it would stay that dry like
Yes ive got that
I’ve even more severe version than this, my palms are wasting as well, body wise, i’ve become an aids patient. I am just 23.

What do you @LazarusRy think is behind this phenomenon? Which part has faided of our hand palms? Is it the fat? is it the epidermis’ partial atrophy?
@andras33 i believe its estrogen women get pruning when going through the change. My hands have softened with muscle loss around the hands too and fingers have thinned.
Thanks! Do you think we could try anything to repair this?
I’ll do my research too on this, cause its so ennoying - yet of course one of my minor problems

I think its a consequence of damaged receptors so we’re deprived of essential hormones and this is the result of long term loss. If i tense my neck muscles you can see long tendons with caverns same in my face legs etc. Collagen muscle cartilage subcontenous fat loss. Basically some of us are seeing global erosion of soft tissue.Fix the receptors and it will all come back. For some who recover which is generally early on ‘hormonal disfunction’ things return. A guys face changed dramatically like the scream mask but his features returned to normal at 2 years. Naturally!

Wow ! I wish I’ll recover from this. I read about pruney fingers’ reason:
“It is now known that pruney fingers are the result of blood vessels that constrict below the surface of the skin. The condition is tied to the function of the nervous system.”
Have this side with your hand palms ever improved?

If i can provide a positive!! approx 2 years ago i was taking tumeric not for pfs but within days i started to improve at end of 1 week i looked younger skin tightened frame became masculine eyes sparkled, mentally i was sharper and anxiety free i was sleeping and getting erections, i was on line. Women were looking at me again and i felt strong. This shows that we wont start from a weakened point if this gets cured. We’d basically return to pre fin. . A big positive to hang on to. Unfortunately i crashed a week later then realised the cause. But it shows that this is fixable
Yeah, its worth to hang in there. We gotta try our own what might help us, cause time flies away.
I’m sure regular excersize could help big time, cant wait for gyms to re-open after this covid mess.
