Hair loss treatment for women
There are many reasons why women can experience thinning hair. Alopecia areata is an immune disease that affects almost 2% of the population in the US. This type of hair loss appears in various degrees of severity from small, round patches of hair loss that re-grow without medical treatment to chronic, extensive hair loss that can involve the loss of all hair on the scalp or body hair. This type of hair loss affects both genders equally and can occur at any age, although it occurs most often in children and young adults.
Baldness and hair loss are not always inevitable, and the amount and rate of loss can often be diminished with the correct treatment. The good news is, there are now available more options than ever before, the bad news is however is that there are even more unscrupulous people selling useless lotion and potions to people who are willing to try anything to achieve their hopes and dreams.
Suddenly hormonal changes when starting or stopping contraceptives, starting or ending a pregnancy, the start of menopause, all has been characterized as the promoter of androgenetic alopecia. The two key events in a life of a woman might promote this onset: pregnancy and menopause. WHY? Simply because menopause causes permanent changes in hormone production, the adrenal glands also undergo changes during menopause. the overall result is a reduction of "androgen antagonist" such as estrogen and a net increase in androgen, as we have elaborated before, androgen is directly responsible in hair loss.
