Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The first thing I noticed about getting older is that my thick, lustrous hair is becoming limp and very scarce. What is the common name for this unnecessary female condition?

Answer: Female-Pattern Baldness

Women's hair thins pretty evenly all over the head. We're just lucky we don't need to resort to the dreaded comb over.
2. The next clue my face was changing was when I tried to apply eyeshadow. I had trouble locating my eyelids! My eyebrows have dropped down so low that even if I could put on eyeshadow, nobody would be able to see it. Why have my eyebrows drooped down in front of my eyes?

Answer: As we age, our forehead skin lowers over the eyebrows and proceeds to sag over the upper eyelids.

Be advised that if this happens to you, there will no longer be a need to purchase either eyeshadow or mascara. It would only be a waste of money!
3. My ageing face looks like I have been sunbathing with a colander over my head. I have strange brown spots here and there that I absolutely cannot scrub off. What are these freckly-looking spots?

Answer: Aging causes skin color changes, and the increased skin pigmentation shows up as "age spots."

Makeup helps, but I still know they're there.
4. I've noticed lately that I have difficulty seeing clearly, but this morning I'm a little scared! I can't see well enough to notice if there are any other changes in my appearance. What is causing my foggy vision?

Answer: Cataracts are clouding my eyes' natural lenses.

This is obviously a defense mechanism; the vision goes early so you can't see what's happening to the rest of your body.
5. Have you ever looked in the mirror and wondered if your nose and your ears are getting bigger? It might look that way, but my doctor assures me they really aren't. They just look like they are. What is a good explanation for this phenomenon?

Answer: Aging causes the collagen and elastin fibers to break down, which in turn causes the nose and ears to droop and appear larger.

Well, that's a relief. We're drooping, not growing.
6. Winter's over, it's time to get out of the turtlenecks and into the tank tops. Wait a minute, what has happened to my neck? This must be what's referred to as a "turkey neck." What is a "turkey neck?"

Answer: A whole lot of loose skin under your chin and jaw which can hang down and sway.

The word gobbledygook refers to "Gobbledygook language" which is defined as "the convoluted language of bureaucrats."
7. I'm still vain about my teeth, the few I have left, and I'm thinking they need whitening. What is a possible side effect of having my teeth bleached?

Answer: Bleaching gel may cause tooth sensitivity to hot or cold fluids.

It seems like everyone is having their teeth bleached these days, but bleaching only works on natural teeth. Any previous dental work, such as crowns, partials, etc... would have to be replaced to match the color of your newly whitened teeth.
8. Today my vision is a little better and guess what I've noticed now? That's right, my husband looks better than I do! Why is it that women seem to physically age faster than men?

Answer: Female skin starts to wrinkle sooner and faster than men's.

The loss of collagen and elastin in our skin is what causes wrinkles, and ladies lose collagen at a faster rate than men.
9. Holy Moly, just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, I've found a huge dark mole on the side of my nose! If it had been a little tiny dark mole near my lip like Cindy Crawford or above my lip along the dimple line like Marilyn Monroe, then what would this facial distraction be called?

Answer: a beauty mark

I wonder if Marilyn Monroe's beauty mark was real; she doesn't seem to have a beauty mark in very early photos!
10. There are huge tears constantly rolling down my cheeks, even though I'm not even crying. My doctor advised it appears my tear ducts are "blocked." There are several different causes for this affliction, but lucky for me, I can be easily treated with antibiotics because I have a severe infection of what?

Answer: my sinuses

Severe sinus infections are often the cause of blocked tear ducts. The tears cannot drain through the tear ducts, so they just roll on down your cheeks.
