Hormonal Changes

Hormonal changes can indeed lead to hair loss. Here are some key points about how different hormonal imbalances can affect hair:

Pregnancy: During pregnancy, increased levels of estrogen can prolong the growth phase of hair, leading to thicker hair. However, after childbirth, estrogen levels drop, which can cause hair to shed more rapidly

Menopause: Hormonal fluctuations during menopause, particularly the decrease in estrogen and progesterone, can lead to hair thinning and loss. This is often seen as a diffuse thinning across the scalp

Thyroid Issues: Both hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) and hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) can cause hair loss. Thyroid hormones are crucial for regulating the hair growth cycle, and imbalances can lead to hair becoming thin, brittle, and falling out

Managing hair loss due to hormonal changes often involves addressing the underlying hormonal imbalance.
