Hormonal hair loss among women

About 50% of women who suffer from fluctuating hormone balances experience hair loss. These hormonal fluctuations can occur, for example, due to menopause but also during and after pregnancy, when estrogen levels drop again. When hormonal hair loss occurs suddenly, we also call it telogen effluvium.

Telogen effluvium is usually temporary in nature, but it can take quite some time before the hair comes back. In the case of hair loss related to menopause, the hair loss can also become chronic (lasting more than 6 months) and last a much longer time. If you catch it in time, you can greatly reduce hair loss and even stimulate regrowth.

How do you recognize hormonal hair loss?

Hair loss caused by hormones is characterized by sudden, diffuse hair loss. The hair becomes thinner over the entire head. Normally we lose about 100 hairs per day, if you suffer from this type of hair loss this can increase to 400 hairs per day. Hormonal hair loss occurs at all ages. During pregnancy, the body produces extra estrogen, a hormone that causes the growth phase (also called anagen phase) of the hair to be extended. After pregnancy, these estrogen levels drop back to their normal levels and a larger amount of hair simultaneously moves into the resting phase (telogen phase).

Since such a phase normally lasts about 2-6 months, it can take some time for the hair to fully recover. Sometimes this can take up to a year. Hormonal hair loss is not to be confused with hereditary hair loss. Hereditary hair loss is caused by a sensitivity to the hormone DHT (Dihydrotestosterone), where hormonal hair loss is caused by fluctuations in hormone balance and a sudden drop/rise in estrogen in the body.
