Causes of Hair Loss in Women

hair loss in women imageAlmost one-third of women experience hair loss. The most common type of hair loss in women is the same type of hair loss being experienced by men, androgenetic alopecia.

A study conducted found out that females tend to shed 100 single hairs per day. Although, shedding is normal and part of the natural hair growth cycle, excessive hair loss is another story. Hair loss is different from the normal hair shedding that we are experiencing.

A common misconception is, men are the only ones prone to hair loss. It is absolutely not true. Hair loss in women is also being experienced by almost 40% of female individuals.

Causes of hair loss in women

Most women experience hair loss in their 40s. Also, mothers experience hair loss after child birth. Seeing more hair fall outs and noticeable hair thinning are one of the symptoms of hair loss in women.

There are a number of causes why women experience hair loss, these are some of the reasons:

  • Old age
  • Genetics
  • Radiation treatment
  • Medical conditions
  • Excessive hairstyling (hair colour, pony tails, braids)
  • Use of harmful chemicals on hair
  • Extreme stress levels
  • Menopause

Hair Loss Treatments for Women

Hair loss treatments are one of the in-demand procedures in hair cosmetic today. More and more women find themselves in great need of undergoing different procedures to help with their hair loss.
If your hair loss is connected to stress, de-stressing is the best way to solve your problem. For some cases where in hair loss was caused by hormonal changes (after child birth), no treatment is needed since hair fall is only temporary.

Here are some of the ways to avoid hair loss :

  • Stay away from hair styles that are pulling the hair lines
  •  Be careful in buying hair products (some hair products contain harmful chemicals on them)
  • Have a scalp massage once in a while (this could greatly help with natural hair growth)
  •  Apply some essential oils
  • Don’t forget your biotin

There are hair loss treatments you can from. For severe hair loss problem, hair transplant can be your option. You can talk to our hair specialists regarding the treatments available and suitable for your condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

A hair loss in women uses follicles from the donor area at the back and sides of the scalp, implanted into areas of thinning or loss. All procedures at our Nottingham clinic are performed by GMC-registered surgeons.

Most patients return to work within a few days. Transplanted hairs shed at 2 to 4 weeks, which is normal. New growth begins at 3 to 4 months and the majority of the final result is visible by 9 to 12 months.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during treatment.

Cost depends on the number of grafts required. Your patient advisor will provide an exact quote during your free consultation. Finance options are available.

The best way to confirm suitability is through our free consultation. Your surgeon will assess your donor density and discuss realistic outcomes.

Graft counts depend on the area treated and degree of hair loss. Typical procedures range from 1,000 to 3,000 grafts. Your surgeon will give an accurate estimate.

It was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Naturally, I was unsure on which organisation to choose for the procedure, but HSHTC came across as professional and caring, as well as having a wide range of availability. There are negative reviews on all businesses, and this drives customers like myself away. However, something told me this would likely be someone with unrealistic expectations, or not reading into the procedure as a whole. I chose to ignore the negatives and read the positives. Sara the coordinator was absolutely amazing! She outlined everything and made it clear of what is expected and what is not. After a great consultation, I was passed to the next stage of meeting surgeon Dr Ditta. He presented extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what he does, so I decided to go ahead with the procedure. The surgery day was expected to be a long, but rewarding day. It started with having to shave my head (mandatory requirement for this procedure). I’d say to anyone the thought is worser than the event, and to just do it for the positives that will follow. Dr Ditta and his team were extremely caring and sensitive, especially with briefing before any painful situations pre anaesthetic. After that, I was allowed to top up when requested and leave them to do what they do best. The day as a whole was enjoyable and interesting to speak to the team to learn more about the procedure and get to know them. Lunch was provided (yay). It was lovely of them to offer, and you definitely need to eat mid procedure to keep energy levels. At the end of the day, I was given clear instruction of how to have the best success rate. It was through a video and in person. If you have questions, ask as it’s what the team is there for. The first few days of recovery can be quite awkward and uncomfortable, but I’d recommend booking 2 weeks off work to fully recover and let the grafts set. Once you get use to the sleeping situation, it’s easy and a lovely break from reality (put pillows below your knees and stack below head for pure comfort!). The aftercare products was extremely useful and easy to use. The grafts will fall out after a few weeks, it’s expected and you’re told this plenty of times!! Having a healthy lifestyle makes your hair grow quicker and thicker, so swap your diet to good healthy hair foods. When your transplanted hair grows back, it’s an amazing feeling, but only the beginning. As the months pass by, you’ll notice a massive improvement. During this process, you’ll have regular aftercare and the chance to raise any concerns. I personally didn’t have any issues and was just grateful to still be in contact and told everything is going as it should. I’m 6 months post surgery and I’m seeing the benefits hugely, and it’s not even reached maximum results yet, as this is one year. Thanks for an amazing service!

Having given some time and thought about having a Hair Transplant, I contacted Harley street hair transplant clinics. The consultant (Sara) explained everything regarding the procedure with Dr.Ditta and the technicians. From the beginning, Dr.Ditta explained the days events and how the procedures would be done beginning with taking a photo of my head and showing me where the grafts would be taken from and where they would be placed. The procedures would be done and completed in two parts, with a lunch break in between. Once completed, Dr.Ditta went through the aftercare, explaining what to do each day for 10 days. I was given capsules, shampoo, sponge, neck pillow for sleeping with and information regarding how to look after my hair. Dr. Ditta and his team were welcoming and friendly ensuring I was looked after throughout both parts of the procedure. Sara maintained regular contact to make sure recovery was going well. The results were great, patience is needed as the grafts start to grow, and then you can see the results. Extremely happy with everything, from start to finish.

Would highly recommend! Everything went very smoothly, communication was excellent throughout. I travelled from Edinburgh to Manchester for the procedure and all travel and accommodation costs were covered. Dr Ditta explained everything clearly and delivered clear and detailed post-op instructions. I was delighted with the whole experience and results so far are very promising!

Overall, my experience at the clinic was positive. Dr. Ditta was exceptional — he made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout the procedure, and his professionalism was truly reassuring. However, I was disappointed with one member of the team who, in my opinion, did not fully follow health and safety protocols. She had her hair down without a surgical cap and was using her phone while wearing gloves, then proceeded to touch my hair without changing them. This raised concerns about hygiene and cross-contamination. Her manner was also not very pleasant, which made the experience less comfortable. Although I was initially worried about the risk of infection, I felt more at ease by the end of my visit. I hope the management reviews this matter to ensure that strict hygiene and professional standards are consistently maintained. Aside from this, I was very satisfied with Dr. Ditta’s care and look forward to seeing my results.

Dear Team. Following my hair transplant last Saturday I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the team, for making my journey as pleasant as possible. From the first consultation, to having my hotel booked, to the procedure itself, I couldn’t have been more impressed. Finally a big thank you to Doctor Ditta and the team, who were so kind when I felt unwell, making me drinking chocolate and reassuring me throughout the process. Add to this, their expertise and professionalism, what more can one ask for? I look forward to the final part of my hair transplant next year. Once again a big thanks to you all. Kind regards Keith Yates

All great from start to finish. Sara with the introduction was very warm and personable, Dr. Ditta and the staff very professional and did a great job in the day of surgery, and Yannis and Stuart were great in the aftercare and checking in appointments.

Before the procedure I had online and face to face consultations with no obligations. These gave me all the information I needed and really put me at ease and gave me the confidence to proceed. Everyone was really knowledgeable and friendly and clearly very experienced. Booking the procedure was quick and easy and I got a date that suited me. The procedure itself went really smoothly I was able to put headphones in and listen to podcasts and was very comfortable. Afterwards I was given really detailed notes on what to do and what would happen and everything went exactly as planned. It was so reassuring knowing that advice was only a text message away and responses were always immediate. I'm two weeks post procedure now and everything has gone back to normal and the recovery is going just as planned. I'm so glad I did this and chose Harley Street Hair Transplant!

Great clinic with friendly and experienced team. I wanted my surgery done in the UK and found the clinic on Google. Process started with virtual consultations with patient advisor and then with the surgeon. FULL costs were given up front, with good finance options available. On the day I designed a new hairline with the surgeon and ended up getting about 1600 grafts iirc, which was good value for money. Clear pre- and post-op instructions given and recovery has gone as expected. Now waiting patiently for regrowth :) - Grant
