Women’s Hair Loss

Women Have the Same Hair Loss Concerns as Men…
Woman to Woman, Dr. Audrey Stanley Can Help.

Women make up approximately 40 percent of hair loss sufferers in the United States. For many women, hair loss is a symptom of stress, pregnancy or a reaction to medication. For others, genetics, injury or disease are to blame. We usually shed between 60 and 100 hairs a day. A woman who notices that her hair is significantly thinning is probably suffering from a more excessive hair loss and the hair follicles are not regenerating hair strands that have fallen out, or the hair is just becoming thinner. In general, hair loss in women is very gradual and often cyclical. Female hair loss patterns differ from that of their males by being more diffuse.

There are three general patterns of female-pattern hair loss as noted by the standard Ludwig Classification System:

Some studies suggest that a majority of premenopausal women and a greater number of postmenopausal women will experience some degree of diffuse hair thinning as part of the natural aging process. A medical exam and blood lab work is often required for the proper diagnosis of female pattern hair loss. If certain medical causes can be identified and treated, female hair loss can in many cases be reversed. The keys for effective female hair loss treatment are a proper diagnosis by Dr. Stanley, early intervention, and proper education of all the non surgical and surgical female hair loss solutions.

If you are a woman looking to disguise scars from other cosmetic procedures like brow and facelifts, Dr. Stanley specializes in transplanting hair through scars.
