It is estimated that 25% of women experience hair loss at some point in their lives. Effective treatment requires understanding the underlying causes and seeking appropriate interventions.
Alopecia in women can manifest in various forms. One common type is female pattern hair loss, characterized by a general thinning of hair. Another form, severe alopecia areata can cause patchy hair loss, where round, smooth patches appear on the scalp or other parts of the body.
How to cure alopecia in women?
Hair growth can be promoted through the application of nutrients and specific medication directly to the scalp. Also, hair transplants are procedures that involve moving hair follicles from one part of the body, to bald areas or thinning.
Hair therapy and stimulation
These treatments usually include the application of products rich in vitamins and minerals, as well as stimulation techniques such as massages or the use of specialized devices that improve blood circulation. If you experience moderate hair loss and still retain the roots, it may be a good treatment for you.
Hair transplant
It consists of removing hair follicles from a donor area of the patient, usually the back or sides of the head, where the hair is more resistant to fall, and transplanting them in areas with hair thinning.
There are different transplantation techniques, such as the extraction of follicular units (FUE) that involve the individual extraction of the hair follicles from the donor area.
What causes baldness in women?
- Severe physical or emotional stress.
- Hormonal imbalances that occur in menopause, pregnancy or conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome.
- Lack of essential nutrients such as iron, zinc, vitamin D and protein.
- The genetic factors that make follicles more sensitive causing androgenic alopecia.
- Some medications for hypertension, cancer, depression and arthritis.
- Frequent use of dyes, bleaches, chemical straighteners, and excessive heat from dryers and irons.
