Despite what you may think, hair loss is not limited to men. Up to 40% of all those suffering from hair loss are women. Dr. Umar understands that women can be at-risk for Alopecia, and he knows that women from some ethnic groups can be particularly at risk for balding due to the unique demands of some of their hair styles.
Women and Hair Loss
Generally, women experience diffused thinning hair along the front of their hairline and on the top of their head, a hair loss pattern most commonly experienced after menopause. This “peach fuzz” effect can be countered with UGraft hair transplant.
But menopause is not the only possible culprit with female balding. Pregnancy, hormone imbalances, general life stress and even going off of birth control pills can all factor into why women experience hair loss. Perhaps most frustrating, while hair loss in men is largely thought by experts to be rooted in genetics, women can experience significant hair loss at any time in life.
