Default Female Hair Loss: Finding A Hair Loss Solution

As a female, if you are facing thinning and losing hair, you are
probably pretty stressed by it. However, you will not be worrying and
causing more hair to drop once you understand some facts about female
hair loss.
You see, in many cases, female hair loss is just a temporary occurance
and hence, finding a hair loss solution to it is relatively easy.

Androgenetic alopecia is the hereditary form of baldness that affects
50 percent of men, and some women after 40. Female hair loss usually
starts after menopause although it can begin earlier. The main reason
for this is that estrogen levels decline. Hormonal changes cause hair
to thin.

most common cause of hair loss in women, is a result of metabolic and

unlike men, women rarely become totally bald. However, what females
generally experience is the thinning of their hair.

For example, in the case of pregnancy, hair loss is temporary and
should stop about 6 months after birth. When a woman is pregnant, a
large amount of oestrogen is produced causing the hair follicles to go
into their growth phase. Once the baby is born, the woman's hormonal
balance is restored. The reverse now happens with the hair follicles
going into a hair loss phase.
