EP 336: Understanding Women’s Hair Loss: Causes, Care, and Real Results
Send Danise a Text Message.The ponytail tells the truth long before we’re ready to hear it. When it shrinks, so does our confidence. We’re digging into the real story behind women’s hair loss—what’s normal, what’s not, how to spot the difference, and how to build a plan that actually works. Drawing on years behind the chair and a personal run-in with bald spots, I walk through the science, the emotions, and the practical steps that turn panic into progress.We break down the major types—female pattern hair loss, telogen effluvium from stress or illness, alopecia areata, and traction alopecia—so you can match symptoms to causes instead of guessing. You’ll hear why a dermatologist-led diagnosis is the smartest first move, what labs to expect, and how to think about timelines. Then we map the treatments with real evidence: topical minoxidil 5% and how to use it, low-dose oral options under medical care, and low-level laser therapy that actually helps when you commit to it. We also get into the daily levers you control—protein intake, iron and vitamin D status, targeted supplements like Nutrafol, anti-dandruff shampoos for scalp inflammation, and styling habits that lower tension and breakage.I share what worked for me during a season of heavy shedding, from medical steps to small routine changes that added up, plus the mindset shifts that kept me steady while waiting for regrowth. If you’ve stared at a widening part or noticed more hair on the pillow, this is your roadmap to clarity and calm.
