How Females Deal with Hairloss

Female Hairloss can be a devastating condition. Whereas male hairloss is somewhat accepted, if grudgingly, female hairloss can be a taboo medical condition that leaves the sufferer desperate to hide any trace of the hairloss.

Even the Romans, with theircrude hairloss remedy of sulfur, tar, and animal urine, knew that female hairloss was somehow different. Where men tend to lose their hair in patches around the temple and forehead, female hairloss is more evenly distributed, making it easier to camouflage. Because of this, getting accurate statistics on female hairloss is difficult, but best estimates are that 20% of all women will sometime in their life experience some significant degree of hairloss, and nearly 5% will experience enough female hairloss to have noticeable clumps of hair fall out.

The effects of female hairloss can range from a diminished self-esteem to the actual avoidance social contact. But there is more a woman suffering from female hairloss can do than just a simple camouflage comb-over. Rogaine (Minoxidil) has proved especially effective in helping women deal with female hairloss by stemming the current rate of hairloss and in some cases actually growing new hair from the shrunken or damaged hair follicles. Of course not everybody will see results immediately, and once the medication is stopped so too is the new hair regrowth, but it is one viable option in dealing with the effects of female hairloss that has been proven to work.

Another option is Hair Transplantation. Though more expensive in the short term than a prescription medication like Rogaine, Hair Transplants have been found to be exceedingly successful in dealing with female hairloss. And unlike Rogaine the results are permanent and very natural-looking, a good thing for any woman suffering from female hairloss.
