In any group of women over the age of 80, 55% will suffer from scalp hair loss.
Hair loss
Female pattern hair loss is often first noticed when the amount of hair loss increases every day and results in thinning hair all over the head.
The normal amount of hair loss is 50 – 100 hairs in a day. Therefore, women over 50 who experience more than 100 hairs per day may notice the effects of FPHL.
What are the causes of hair loss in women 50+?
Scientists believe that the causes of hair loss and alopecia in mature women can be linked to the genes we inherit from our parents. Most women with FPHL do not have a hormonal imbalance to cause hair loss.
How long does it take for female hair loss to progress?
It usually starts after menopause and progresses in ‘fits and starts’. A noticeable increase may last for 3 – 6 months and then the amount may stabilize between 6 – 18 months – until the hair growth cycle begins again. Without optimal treatment, it usually progresses to alopecia (baldness).
chemical treatment for hair loss
FPHL cannot be cured. However, there are some very useful products on the market. By changing the balance of hormones produced in the body, they can stop or slow down hair loss, preventing it from getting worse.
hormone blocker
Some treatments for mature women are based on drugs that block the production of certain hormones. These can be taken as pills and combined with a hormone solution that is massaged into the scalp.
Hormone blocking treatments need to be followed for at least 6 months before they can start to show any effect. This type of treatment varies from country to country according to the rules. Long-term medication is usually necessary to stop hair loss. No product can guarantee faster hair growth or thicker hair, but it has been clinically proven to regrow hair in some women.
All hormonal treatments must be prescribed and supervised by a physician.
