Hi,
      Thanks for writing in. Itchy skin in menopause is very common along with hot flashes, night sweats and headaches. This could be due to dehydration and drying of the skin. I would recommend that your wife uses moisturizer containing Vitamin A& E with alphahydroxy acids, maintain proper hydration, avoid smoking, caffeine and alcohol.
Take advise from a nutritionist for a balanced diet in menopause. If symptoms persist a visit to a dermatologist and gynecologist would help.
Best.
