The thyroid can undergo disorders that will severely affect the ability for a woman to grow hair. There's a whole range of thyroid conditions that affect women in a variety of ways. For the thyroid gland, cancer and Hashimoto's disease are easily recognized diseases. The important point about hair loss in women is that it's often one of the symptoms of "possible" thyroid disorder. So if you are a woman who notices that her hair is suddenly thinning, you should make an appointment to have your doctor check out your thyroid.
It's no wonder with all the incredible changes occurring during pregnancy that a woman's hair is also greatly affected. Some women lose hair faster than normal and others will grow it faster than normal. The 'lucky' women who grew all that hair will lose it fairly quickly after the baby is born.
Women's hair loss doesn't get nearly as much documentation as the hair loss that men suffer through. But we do know that women have hair loss, thinning, or restrained growth, and there are different reasons for those conditions.
Menopause has the distinction of causing hair loss in a huge majority of cases with women. There are numerous changes that occur when menopause hits, and hair loss is among them. In fact, a woman loses more hair through shedding and other problems after she goes through menopause than she typically does beforehand. This is because her estrogen levels drop and her hormones go out of whack. But unfortunately, a woman's hair cannot be made to replace what has been lost through hormonal replacement therapy. There could be other options that you may be interested in, so speak with your family doctor. There is no doubt that women's hair loss is not viewed in the same way as it is for men. The sad part is that the same numbers of women have hair loss as do men. These are just a few of the reasons that a woman might suffer from hair loss or hair thinning. There are others, of course, but these are some of the most recognizable reasons that women lose their hair.
