Prevent Female Pattern Balding



Female pattern baldness involves a typical pattern of hair loss in women that is caused by hormones, aging, and genes. It is also known as Alopecia or Androgenic Alopecia. Female patter baldness can cause a lot of emotional damage for a woman. It may make her feel less attractive, self conscious, and cause anxiety or depression. Some hair loss can be considered normal but getting a diagnosis is important to find the cause so that treatment can be started. Treatments are extremely important if the woman is suffering emotional damage.

Baldness happens when hair falls out but the new hair does not grow in its place. The understanding of the failure to grow new hair is not fully understood. It has been associated with aging, predisposition, and levels of endocrine hormones. Mostly the male sex hormone known as Androgen is the culprit. Hormones change after menopause, most women experience thinned hair on the scalp and courser facial hair.

The frontal hairline tends to stay maintained but the hair thins all over the head usually pretty evenly in female pattern balding. This what makes female pattern balding so different from male pattern balding. And the fact that the even though the new hair is not being produced the follicles still remain alive. This suggests that there is possibility for regrowth of hair and makes treatments more effective.

Female pattern baldness is not the only thing that causes baldness. This is why the diagnosis of balding is important. A skin biopsy can be done to aid in diagnosis. It is not the only test to be done, it is the most effective though. It could be temporary shedding of hair. Breaking of hair from twisting or styling, or medications the person is taking. Other known causes for hair loss are under active thyroid, iron deficiency, vitamin deficiency, certain skin diseases, and hormone imbalances or abnormalities.

A woman does not have to under go treatment for female pattern baldness if she does not want too and is comfortable with her appearance. It is not life threatening in any way. Hair transplants consist of removing tiny plugs of hair from areas where hair is still growing and placing them in areas where the hair is thinning. This requires multiple sessions and is very costly. Results are permanent.

The use of hair implants was banned by the FDA for high rate of infections. Stitching on of hair pieces to the scalp is not recommended because it can cause scarring, infection, and abscess on the scalp. The safest way to disguise balding is to get a wig, or hair pieces, hair weaving is also another good choice but it pulls on the hair that is left which can cause more to fall out.

Another great natural solution to treat female pattern balding is Provillus for women. It works on two ways to re-grow hair. It has a topical solution with the only FDA approved ingredient for women, minoxidil, to be applied twice a day. And a dietary supplement for hair nourishment. Strong healthy hair is the result of good nutrition, this product has all the vitamins, minerals, and herbs needed for hair growth and vitality.
