Men are not the only ones that suffer from hair loss. Women also lose hair and can be effected by androgenic alopecia. Infact thinning hair in women is quite common. But this does not make it any easier to deal with. Many people, both men and women, have a suffer from the massive psychological side effects that can come from losing hair. However there are ways to reverse hair loss in women.
Hair loss treatments for women are are not the same as ones for men. An example of where the way women baldness is treated differently to that of male hair loss is in the use of propecia. This is a very effective treatment for androgenic alopecia in men, however it is not used for female hair loss. This it because it can cause hormone imbalances and can cause hair to grow on other parts fo the body such as the chest or face.
When dealing with hair loss in women it is important to find out the cause. This may be a hormone imbalance, or due to stress, or a number of other factors. If you are stressed, taking a holiday from work or your the kids may reduce your stress and could lead to a decrease in hair loss. I would recommend seeing physician and finding out what the possible solutions are for you.
There are also hair growth vitamins specifically available for women. Provillus have a specific product for women who are suffering from hair loss. Natural remedies for hair loss can also be applied to women. If you are thinking of trying some natural treatments for hair loss I would not hesitate to get this book.
