Women go bald too!
|
How fast does the hair thin?
The overall rate of hair loss varies from person to person. It is even possible to have some spontaneous but temporary hair re-growth. While some women might take 25 years to reach significant baldness, others might take just 5 years to go extensively bald. Moreover, hormone production varies with the season. Winter is the worst period as testosterone production increases. (Testosterone, when converted to DHT, adversely affects the hair follicles). Added to this, women have a monthly hormone cycle.
Treatment
Unlike in men, where areas of skin may become completely devoid of hair, Female Pattern Thinning most often involves diffuse thinning and production of thinner hair fibres. There is less destruction of the hair follicles in specific regions of the skin. This means that regenerating your hair is easier to achieve for women. Of course, if you find that you are loosing excessive hair or notice any of the above-mentioned symptoms, visit a Trichologist as soon as possible. Your condition may worsen and become harder to treat if it is neglected.
Natural treatments are always the best, as hormone-replacement therapy, which is sometimes touted as an option for hair regrowth, generally has side effects. Dong Quai Complex, made from a plant called Dong Quai (which has natural Oestrogen), has had great results when thinning is due to low Oestrogen levels. High Androgen levels can be treated by Serenoa Complex (composed of Saw Palmetto fruit and a stem called Horsetail). Of course, it is best to get your condition and its case accurately diagnosed through a Tricho-check.
So, the next time you look in the mirror and find your hair growing horribly thin, don't hide behind a scarf with embarrassment. Trichology exists so that you don't have to suffer in silence and in shame.
