Women and Hairloss Prevention Techniques

There may be no more dispiriting medical condition than hairloss. Women who suffer from this malady derive little comfort from the fact that baldness itself has no side effect except for hairloss. Women who suffer with hairloss, however, know that the social stigma attached to such a condition can oftentimes be stronger than the loss of hair itself.

And though there is no cure for baldness, preventing hairloss in women might be just as important as searching for a cure. As with any medical condition the earlier it is treated, the more likely the results will be positive, and hairloss in women is no exception. The truth is that women suffer hairloss differently than men. Whereas men tend to lose their hair in concentrated areas such as the temple and the forehead, women suffer hairloss in more distributed areas, making it easier to camouflage but also easier to delay treatment.

Medications such as Rogaine do their best work when used in the early stages of hairloss. This topical solution can not only stem the rate of hairloss but in some instances actually can promote new hair growth. And as an over the counter solution it is affordable and very easy to get. It is important that women who have hairloss do NOT take Propecia which may possibly cause birth defects, and women who are pregnant should not even touch the pills themselves.

One of the best ways to prevent hairloss in women is with hair transplantation. Hair transplants once had the reputation for artificial-looking surgical procedure that often looked worse than the scalp with little or no hair. But things have changed. Technology has improved the procedure by reducing the number of hair follicles that can be transplanted at any one time and allowing the hair restoration surgeon more flexibility for making the transplant look natural and pleasing to the eye. And women with hairloss are one of the fastest growing segments of hair transplant customers.
