Hair thinning is one of the biggest frustrations women face during midlife, yet it's often dismissed as "just part of getting older."
But is menopause really the whole story?
In this episode of Midlife Mayhem, I explain why hair loss is often far more complex than simply declining estrogen. We explore the roles of hormones, thyroid function, protein intake, collagen, stress, and overall health—and, most importantly, what you can actually do about it.
In This Episode
Why over half of women experience some degree of hair thinning during menopause.
How declining estrogen affects the hair growth cycle.
Why changes in the estrogen-to-testosterone ratio matter—even when testosterone is declining.
The role of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) and hair follicle miniaturization.
