Menopause And Your HAIR

Has your hair changed during menopause?

Possibly, and here’s why…

Declining estrogen can cause:

  • Dry & itchy scalp
  • Dull hair
  • Reduced ability for hair to grow
  • Increased androgens which can lead to male pattern baldness like hairline hair loss & a wider part

Here are six tips to keep your hair healthy & strong during menopause:

  1. Reduce stress
  2. Get moving
  3. Eat well – include healthy fats, Vitamin B6, biotin rich foods (whole grains, salmon, pork, sardines, mushrooms, cauliflower, avocados, bananas, raspberries)
  4. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate!
  5. Keep it natural – stay away from heat tools as much as possible and use quality products
  6. Talk to your doctor about your medications – some medications may contribute to thinning hair and loss
