Female Hair Loss: Understanding & Solutions at Hair Again Clinic

Hair loss can be an emotional and frustrating experience for women of all ages. At Hair Again, we understand that your hair is more than just appearance — it’s confidence, identity, and self-expression. Whether you’re experiencing thinning, shedding, or noticeable bald spots, we’re here to help you find answers and restore your confidence.

Why Does Female Hair Loss Happen?

Female hair loss can occur due to a variety of factors, including:

  • Hormonal imbalances (e.g., menopause, postpartum changes, PCOS)

  • Genetics (Female Pattern Hair Loss)

  • Stress or trauma

  • Medical conditions (thyroid issues, iron deficiency, autoimmune disorders)

  • Poor nutrition

  • Harsh styling or chemical treatments

Whatever the cause, we’ll work with you to identify the root of the problem and tailor a treatment plan just for you.

Hair goes through three cycles:

The anagen phase (growing phase) can last from two years to eight years. This phase generally refers to about 85% to 90% of the hair on your head.

The catagen phase (transition phase) is the time that hair follicles shrink and takes about two to three weeks.

The telogen phase (resting phase) takes about two to four months. At the end of this phase, the hair falls out.

There Are Three Types of Hair Loss in Women:

  • Androgenetic alopecia/female pattern alopecia/female pattern hair loss (FPHL)/baldness: This is the most common type. Hair thins over the top of your head and on the sides.

  • Anagen effluvium: Medications cause this type because they compromise a growing hair follicle. An example is chemotherapy.

  • Telogen effluvium: An increased number of hair follicles reaching the telogen phase causes this type. This is the stage where hair falls out.

​​​​​​​What is the relationship between hair loss in women and menopause?

Your body experiences changes during menopause.

This can affect your hair and cause:

  • Hair growing where it didn’t before.

  • The hair you have thinning out.

  • These changes happen due to varying levels of hormones during menopause. In addition, your hair follicles shrink.​

This makes your hair grow finer (thinner).

Hormonal Imbalance

When hormones are not in balance, hair loss can occur.

A person’s hormones can begin to decline and lose balance as

early as their 30’s.

DHT: The Hair Loss Hormone

Male hormones, called androgens, are responsible for both female and male pattern hair loss. Pattern baldness occurs when dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels become elevated in the scalp. Additionally, low levels of female hormones may cause male hormones

How to diagnose hair loss in women:

  • Gently pulling on your hair to see how many hairs come out.

  • Scalp examination under a microscope.

  • Blood tests. These check for vitamin and mineral levels (like vitamin D, vitamin B, zinc and iron) and hormone levels (like thyroid).

We go through a comprehensive Hair Test questionnaire with you, do scalp analysis and offer a personalized plan to deal with your hair loss concerns.
