Hair loss in women ca
n have many causes. Fortunately, many of them can be at least partially reversed with natural remedies. Thinning hair in women is often caused by nutritional deficiencies, such as inadequate vitamin A, iron, vitamin D, or protein.
Hormonal imbalance and medications are often culprits, along with stress, surgery, disease, crash diets, thyroid disorders and even dental treatment. These can usually be dealt with fairly easily, once the cause is known.
Many mild and moderate cases of hair loss or thinning hair will improve on their own, simply as hair follicles go through their different growth and resting phases, and many others will improve with a reduction of stress, and some natural remedies. Thinning hair in women will often respond to basic nutritional improvements. Eat more whole, natural foods, including fruits and vegetables, nuts and beans. Take a high-quality multi-vitamin/mineral supplement. Drink lots of water. Get some exercise, even if it’s only twenty minutes of walking three or four times a week.
More dramatic or long-lasting hair loss may be a function of hormone imbalances, especially testosterone levels that are too high, or thyroid or insulin level problems. Testing for these problems can lead to natural, non-drug solutions.
Severe hair thinning can be due to the female version of male pattern baldness or “androgenetic alopecia”. It happens when DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, builds up in hair follicles. Adjusting the balance between estrogen and testosterone can sometimes cause a reversal in symptoms.
If they have no luck with these natural remedies for thinning hair, women may want to consider a very effective treatment called Provillus for Women. It’s a two-part system containing a mix of vitamins and minerals and a proprietary blend of other ingredients, along with a solution of Minoxidil, the only FDA-approved drug for treating hair loss in women.
You take one capsule morning and night, and massage a dropperful of Minoxidil into the affected area morning and night. The solution isn’t greasy or obvious, so you can go about your day without anyone knowing.
Provillus can stop the hair loss, make the hair seem thicker and fuller, and even cause new hair growth in some cases.
You can get much more information on the Provillus website, and there are written and video testimonials there, as well. It’s worth checking out.

A multi-millionaire may be made one day – the day a scientific researcher finds a simple, inexpensive, universally successful hair re-growth product. In the meantime there are remedies for thinning hair in women that have varying degrees of success.
Each human body is unique, with unique levels of hormones, chemicals, and enzymes. For this reason, to date, there is not a universal cure. Some people experience reduction in hair loss and solid re-growth, while others using the same product may not see the same results.
For those who experience less than desired results from the variety of topical formulations, pills, herbs and hair products available, there are currently surgical “cures,” if they have the financial wherewithal to pursue them. These involve a variety of transplant techniques and can be tedious and a bit painful. Such cures are available for both men and women.
In transplants, a hair strip is taken from a donor area of the scalp, usually the back, because pattern baldness in both men and women usually does not affect the back of the head. From these strips, individual follicles are extracted and then implanted into the bald area of the scalp. The “art” of this procedure is to get the follicle in so that the slant of the hair is correct for that part of the head.
There is only one hair in each follicle, so you can imagine how many transplants have to occur if someone wants a full, thick head of hair to replace a completely bald spot. The average cost of transplant, per follicle, was $4 – $6 when this was written. The average cost of pattern baldness transplants for men is about $10,000.00 – a hefty bill for most of us. For women who have overall balding events, the cost can be greater still.
If you do not have $10,000 to spend at the moment, one of the better remedies for thinning hair in wome
n is a product called Provillus. It’s a two-stage system of nutritional supplements taken in a capsule, plus the application of Minoxidil liquid to the scalp. Minoxidil is the only medication for thinning hair in women that is approved by the FDA.
You can get much more information about one of the best remedies for thinning hair in women at the Provillus website, including print and video testimonials by women happy with the results.
