Women Can Suffer From Hair Loss on the Scalp as Well as Men
Many people believe that it is only men who go bald, and to a certain extent that may be true. But the fact is that women can lose hair as well, and often do, but it can vary quite a bit from men.
Men who lose hair tend to have bald patches on the head where all of the hair is lost. It is often very different for women. Certainly, they can lose hair, but they tend towards areas of thinning hair rather than totally bald patches.
However, there is another very big difference between a lot of men and most women, from the point of view of how it affects them psychologically. Many men who lose hair – not all of them, by any means, but many – often tend to shrug their shoulders and think to themselves “Hey ho! That’s the way the cookie crumbles.” and just get on with their lives.
It can be very different for women. This is because many women do not suffer from hair loss in the same way as men, but when they do it can have a debilitating effect on their morale. They can see the patches of thinning hair where the scalp shows through, and it can be really upsetting. So those women can feel that there is something “wrong” with them. That is not true of course, but that can be how they feel, and that is not a good situation to be in.
There is an Answer to Female Hair Loss
Fortunately, there is an answer for them, and one of those is female hair transplantation. This is exactly the same way that men can have a transplant. Those areas of thinning hair can be covered up by transplanting hairs from another part of the head into the thinning areas, where they will grow perfectly well.
