Female Hair Loss

Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy

Hair loss in women can be noticed by seeing more shedding than usual, lower density at the crown, or a widening of the part in the hairstyle. It does not always stem from a single cause.

Common causes: hormonal factors, changes after pregnancy, nutritional deficiencies, stress, certain skin conditions of the scalp, and family history all play a part.

Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist studies the scalp and the pattern of loss; when a hormonal origin is suspected, the gynecologist's evaluation may be added, and aesthetic medicine complements the approach to hair appearance.

When is it worth examining? If the loss is sudden, heavy, or accompanied by itching, redness, or bald areas, it is worth having a professional identify the cause and explain the options available for your case.
