Women hair loss treatment tips
Protect yourself from hair loss with the right products and supplements.
Earlier this month, brave Gail Porter revealed her shocking new hairdo - a red Mohican - as a result of suffering from alopecia.
Alopecia is a condition where the body mistakenly starts attacking the hair follicles, causing smooth bald patches, which can progress to partial or total hair loss. Scientists do not know exactly what causes alopecia, although stress and hormone imbalances after child-birth are often cited as possible reasons. In most cases of alopecia, hair starts growing normally again in a few years time.
It is estimated that six out of ten women will suffer some degree of hair loss at some point in their life, which can be extremely distressing. Even if you are one of the lucky 4 never to experience hair loss, everyone, as they age will experience thinning hair. Although 50% of all men over 50 experience some form of pattern baldness, so do 40% of post-menopausal women.
Along with a healthy diet and lifestyle, there are plenty of products on the market that say they can help to improve the condition of thinning hair.
