A new study found that hair loss affects over 52% of women over 50 years old, and 80% of women by the time they are 60 years old. During peri-menopause, menopause, and post-menopause, women's hormones are fluctuating, decline, and causing chronic hair shedding, thinning, and hair loss in many women. During women's midlife years, there are other hormonal changes going on causing weight gain, leading to yo-yo dieting, increased stress, disrupted sleep, and challenges with exercising. Add in genetics, poor nutrient absorption, and other health issues and you have the perfect storm for hair loss.There are solutions for reversing hair loss. Lifestyle interventions are the first lines of defense (optimizing nutrition, sleep, stress management, and exercise). Making sure you are absorbing nutrients properly, and have good gut health is also essential. Comprehensive lab testing dictates supplementation, and possible medication, and then looking at the array of hair growth therapies to create a personalized approach to growing healthy hair.Dr. Lady Dy is double board certified in Dermatology and Dermatopathology and has clinical expertise in hair loss and pigmentation disorders, including ethnic skin and hair disorders.
