Hair shedding

I’m post menopausal. Does anyone else have really bad hair shedding? Can you share what supplements or hair therapy treatments you might be using that helps with this? My hair is also fine so that doesn’t help.

Do you do your own scalp facials or have someone do it?

No I have a professional do them I wouldn’t even attempt it lol

How often?

Hello 🙂 This M-brace The Change factsheet on hair loss in menopause should be helpful: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1C9qEw3La4zFADRWjm4I-JRUCNQeXCs9B/view?usp=drivesdk Personally, I find Olaplex helpful, and I change regime around every 6 months - I swap to Nioxin, or the Champō range. I don't wash my hair each day, and use HRT. My hair loss is much reduced in recent years - postmenopausal age 53⅞ 🙂 Please be aware that some ingredients in hair supplements can be harmful, and some can affect blood test results etc (e.g. biotin). Supplements are not regulated and are not routinely tasted for safety and efficacy. 🩷

Thank you. Ive used Nioxin before but its been years. I just purchased the shampoo and conditioner by Routine Wellness. I’ve read good things about it. Im actually getting my blood taken this week so I will wait until after that to start any new supplements. Good to know! Thanks for the info link.

@Sharon I read that link and it makes so much sense now. My last pellet that was given was given with waaaay too much testosterone. That is one of the issues mentioned in that link you sent me that could cause the shedding. Because mine has really just started in the last couple of months bad. I’ve switched doctors though and im getting new bloodwork drawn this week so that my next HRT is dosed correctly.

I use Nutrafol. My dermatologist recommended it, and it does work.
