“Hair growth does decrease during perimenopause or post-menopause,” says Dr. Anthony Rossi, M.D., a board-certified dermatologist in New York City. Also, as you lose estrogen, skin becomes drier, which can also impact the scalp, he adds. It also explains why your hair may seem more fine, delicate, and drier than in years past. Severe and progressive hair loss conditions can surface around this timeframe as well, as female pattern hair loss in women typically begins in the 40s, 50s, or 60s, Rossi adds.
If you’re concerned about hair loss, it’s best to schedule a checkup with your doctor if your thinning involves a widening part, shrinking ponytail, or receding hairline around the temples. “A board-certified dermatologist can run bloodwork and assess if there is a nutritional deficiency, such as iron or other vitamin levels, or even a different underlying cause such as thyroid issues,” Rossi says.
