With menopause come many changes, the most notable being hot flashes, and changes in sexual desire and drive¹. However, hormonal changes associated with menopause can also significantly affect your hair.
Menopause and hair loss
Humans lose an average of 100 strands of hair a day. However, as hormonal changes occur, this number increases. During perimenopause, the period when your body transitions to menopause, the hair growth cycle starts to change. Perimenopause usually begins during your 40s and can last up to 10 years².
As hair loss is a slow process, the changes won’t be pronounced, but you may start to notice that there’s more hair on your hairbrush than usual, or on your pillowcase. Eventually, the realities of hormonal hair loss will become more evident, with your hair adopting a lackluster appearance and your hairline even beginning to recede².

As disheartening as menopausal hair loss can be, there are treatment options that can help you to have healthy and luscious locks.
