Hair Loss In Women

In this review we will discuss everything you need to know about hair loss in women.  It is very important that you do not seek treatment until you know exactly what's causing the hair loss.

What Causes Hair Loss In Women?

There are a few health related issues that could cause hair loss for women, but the most common is the polycystic ovary syndrome which is a common hormonal problem in women.  Most of the times the only obvious sign is hair loss.

Certain types of autoimmune disorders also result in a slightly different and often less dramatic hair loss problem which is widely know as alopecia areata, an inflammatory condition that causes hair to come out in clumps or patches.

What Can Be Done To Prevent Hair Loss?

Depending on the severity of the problem women can use products that contain Minoxidil (a known medication which has a proven record of being able to cure hair loss and baldness).  You should be looking for products that contain Minoxidil in a topical solution as they have been proven to work best with targeting where you wish to grow more hair.  The products that contain Minoxidil in form of a pill are very unstable and are known to grow hair almost everyone else except the head.

For those women who suffer from mild to medium hair loss you should stick to those products which are specifically created just for women.  Normally those topical solutions would contain about 2% Minoxidil.  For those women who suffer from extreme hair loss (loosing patches of hair) you should be looking for products that have Minoxidil and that are designed for Men which normally contain about 5% Minoxidil.

Here are a few products that contain Minoxidil and that have created specific solutions for women:  Provillus, Procerin & Scalpmed.
