Hair Loss

Hair loss is a common but often distressing experience for women, and it can stem from many interconnected factors. Hormonal changes, thyroid disorders, nutrient deficiencies, stress, autoimmune conditions, metabolic health, and shifts in the scalp microbiome can all influence how hair grows, sheds, and regenerates.

Because hair is highly sensitive to internal health, changes in thickness, texture, or shedding patterns often serve as early signals that something deeper may need attention.

This tag brings together evidence-based insights on the causes, evaluation, and treatment of hair loss, along with practical strategies to support healthy hair growth. Topics include hormonal influences, thyroid function, iron and nutrient status, inflammation, stress physiology, scalp health, and the role of aging and metabolic health.

Whether you are noticing increased shedding, thinning, or changes in hair quality, this section helps women understand the biology behind hair loss and navigate their options with clarity and confidence.
