Female Hair Loss Solutions

A common misconception with female hair loss is that women experiencing hair loss is rather rare, when in fact, that is patently false. While hair loss in men is often the result of genetics in addition to age, with women, hair loss can happen at any time. Women experiencing loss, commonly referred to as pattern balding, tend to see thinning across the entire scalp rather than on the top of the head, as characterized by male pattern baldness. But, much like men suffering from hair loss or pattern baldness, women too can undergo surgical hair transplantation to restore their lost hair naturally at PAI.

In most cases the pattern of baldness common to women is called diffuse baldness. This type of baldness occurs over the entire scalp. Diffuse hair loss can be caused by a number of factors other than genetic disposition.

While diffuse hair loss is most often hereditary, it can also be caused by medical conditions such as:
• Obstetric and gynecological conditions (post-partum and post-menopausal states or ovarian tumors)
• Anemia
• Thyroid disease
• Connective tissue diseases (Lupus)
• Nutritional causes
• Stress from surgical procedures, general anesthesia or severe emotional problems

Women with diffuse hair loss are typically treated best medically, with laser therapy or a similar option. Those experiencing diffuse hair loss might not have a suitable donor area from which to harvest hairs during transplant surgery. On the other hand, some women do experience pattern baldness that is most common in men. Women with this type of hair loss may be good candidates for hair transplant surgery.

As part of our female hair transplant procedure at PAI Medical Group of Indiana, we include a thorough evaluation to determine the underlying cause of hair loss.

PAI Medical Group’s trademarked procedure, Multi-Unit Hair Grafting, can be used for both men and women who are experiencing hair loss. While not all females suffering from hair loss are candidates for hair transplantation, with new harvesting techniques and our unique process for treating female hair loss, the number of female patients we treat for hair loss is increasing each year.

Hair Loss Education

If you are losing your hair, it can be an intimidating process looking at all of the different causes and treatment options. At PAI Medical Group, we want to make the process as simple as possible, and believe it is important to get educated about different reasons for hair loss and options available to you. PAI Medical Group will be here to help you every step of the way!

Causes of Hair Loss

Genetics- Hereditary hair loss is the most common form of hair loss, especially in men. Androgenetic alopecia, also known as male pattern baldness/female pattern baldness is caused by genetically predisposed hair follicles. Your individual genetic makeup that can come from either side of the family is the core contributor that leads to an interruption in normal hair growth.

Hormones- The two hormones that can contribute to hair loss in both genders are testosterone and dyhydrotestosterone (DHT).

Time- Simply, with age comes a higher risk of hair loss. Aging and naturally thinning hair are intertwined in many ways, and the reality of advancing age means many people will eventually see signs of thinning hair.

Physical Stress- Tension on the hair can also lead to permanent hair loss. This particular hair loss is directly tied to prolonged tension of the hair – cornrows, tight braiding, hair extensions, etc. – and can lead to long-term hair loss more often than people realize.

Psychological Effects of Hair Loss
Loss of hair can affect more than just your appearance, but how you feel internally. Psychological effects of hair loss are common in both men and women. Studies have shown that hair loss can invoke emotional trauma, stress and anxiety. It’s important to know that you don’t have to just accept your thinning hair, instead, speak to a hair loss expert at PAI.

In addition to the psychological responses to hair loss, many patients are sincerely worried about their appearance and overall attractiveness. It’s not uncommon for both men and women to admit that their hair loss affects them both personally and professionally, an altogether unpleasant psychological occurrence directly attributed to deflated self-esteem.

More and more people are beginning to take control of their thinning hair by choosing hair restoration treatments. A thorough, professional consultation is your best option for restoring lost or thinning hair.

At PAI Medical Group of Indiana, we take great pride in walking each of our potential patients through the entire hair restoration process. Call us at 1- (888) 724-5129 to schedule your free consultation and be on your way to a healthier, fuller head of hair.
