Hair loss or baldness is most often associated with men. Virtually every product you see advertised is associated with helping men and their problem with hair loss. What is not discussed as often is the female hair loss.

In this article let's take a look at what causes female hair loss and what can be done about it.

One interesting statistic is that as many as one out of four women in the United States will experience hair loss at one time in their life. Chances are you know a woman who has had this problem.

The most common cause of hair loss in women relates back to hormone levels. Hormone levels affect many things in a woman's life.

An imbalance in hormones causes some women to lose their hair and is most likely to happen during pregnancy, around the time of giving birth to a child, and at the time of menopause. This is when women's hormone levels are most out of balance at a higher level.

If you were to talk to a woman who is experiencing hair loss she may think it has something to do with blow drying her hair too often. Or it might have to do with changing hair colors or getting too many perms. This usually is not the case.

Hair is more important to women than it is to men so when they began to experience loss of hair it can have a dramatic effect on their life. Some will resort to wearing wigs as a way to keep a beautiful full head of hair.

This can be an expensive alternative because wigs are not cheap if you purchase a quality one. Some women will even resort to a hair transplant which is a viable option too.

Nutrition is a more health oriented way to deal with this problem. Today there are many products on the market designed to help with the thinning of women hair. Dietary supplements are one way to bring more nutrition to the scalp and hair follicles.

With the many pollutents and toxins in the air extra vitamins are not always possible to solve the problem of female baldness, but it can be helpful. And of course you get the additional benefits that come with being more healthy.

If you are a woman dealing with female hair loss you may want to consult with your physician. It is not the end of the world and certainly a problem that can be dealt with in multiple ways.
