Menopause And Hair Loss Is Not A Myth

By John Farikani

Many women wonder is there anything that can be done about menopause and hair loss. The fact is however, that a good majority don't even know that women lose their hair. This problem is often associated with men, but it is a reality for many women as well.

Unfortunately, as this problem is not as common in women as it is in men, women find it to be quite difficult to deal with. Also, you should know that women do not lose their hair in the same way that men do.

For the latter, theirs usually begins with a bald spot, thinning or with the hairline receding. Often, this results in baldness on the entire top half of the scalp.

Women-pattern baldness is typically the thinning of the hair on the top of the scalp. For many, it can get quite thin, leaving women feeling very insecure and trying different hairstyles to conceal the problem. Unfortunately, they usually opt for styles which can further damage hair follicles, leading to more thinning.

Do you know any women who are going through menopause and hair loss? It is a trying time for them. Not only are they having to deal with the hormonal changes that come with menopause, they are also dealing with an embarrassing and emotionally crushing problem.

In the past, women either teased their hair, pulled it back in pony tails, or permed it to hide their secret. But, now there is something that can be done to treat this problem. In fact, if it is caught in time, hair can be regrown by using the proper treatment. If not, then at least it can help maintain the amount of hair you have. Rest assured, there are healthy ways to deal with menopause and hair loss.
