As if Mother Nature didn't already do a number on us during Perimenopause and Menopause, with the hot-flashes, night sweats and brain fog, now I'm really starting to see more scalp! Yikes! What's a menopause lady to do, she buys a hair topper of course!!
​
To be honest, it was such a drastic change, at least to me at first that it took a week or so to be confident enough to wear it in public. Now, a few weeks into having the hair topper, I wear it every day. It's been fun to experience with different hair styles. It's been so long since I've been able to do anthing with my hair!
​
This is my first topper; I already have a 2nd and 3rd on order. This one has less roots, than the 2nd I've ordered, has more roots and the 3rd will be synthetic hair, as I wanted to try those out as well. I'll keep you posted on how it goes.
Hair Loss is a side-effect of Perimenopause and Menopause
​
During perimenopause and menopause, many women experience hair loss, which can be attributed to a combination of hormonal changes, genetics, and environmental factors. One of the primary hormonal shifts involves a decrease in estrogen levels. Estrogen plays a crucial role in the hair growth cycle; it helps to prolong the growth phase and maintain hair density. As estrogen levels drop, the balance between hair growth and shedding can be disrupted, leading to increased hair thinning and loss.
​
Additionally, progesterone levels also fluctuate during this transitional period. Progesterone has a protective effect on hair follicles, and its decline can exacerbate the effects of testosterone, which may convert to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Elevated DHT levels can shrink hair follicles, leading to finer hair strands and a reduction in overall hair volume. This hormonal interplay often results in a condition known as androgenetic alopecia, which is characterized by thinning hair along the crown and temples.
​
Stress is another contributing factor during this time, as women may face emotional and physical stressors related to aging, health changes, and life transitions. Stress can trigger telogen effluvium, a condition where hair follicles prematurely enter the shedding phase. Additionally, nutritional deficiencies that may arise during menopause, such as lower iron or vitamin D levels, can further compromise hair health. Together, these factors can lead to noticeable changes in hair density and texture, prompting many women to seek solutions to manage this common but distressing aspect of aging.
