Medical treatments for cancer are one definite cause for this condition in women. Thinning and loss of hair due to chemotherapy is a well-documented side-effect. There is just a ton of written material available designed to help women deal with this type of hair loss as well as cope with it. One great gesture for women concerns the existence of charity groups that collect wigs made of real hair, and then they supply them to women to wear while they wait for their hair to return to normal.
Pregnancy is another condition that can have a huge impact on a woman's hair. The effect is that some experience rapid hair growth, but for other women the opposite happens. This is quite common after the baby is born when all of the extra hair that grew in while the woman was pregnant starts to be shed.
It can be quite alarming, especially if this is your first pregnancy. However once the body chemistry and hormones return to normal then things will settle down with the hair. So just don't get stressed about it because it's all normal and not permanent.
Women's hair loss is not talked about, openly in the media, anywhere near as much as it is for men. What is well-known is that women have hair loss issues in many different contexts.
Most of them cannot be controlled. They have to do with hormone levels and family medical history. There are permanent conditions of hair loss, while others are temporary in nature. If you notice your hair is thinning, lately, best to make that doctor's appointment and find out what's happening.
