118: Help! My hair is falling out!

The Hormone Hub

13-05-2024 • 11 mins

If you're losing hair by the handful...you're not alone.
It's another alarming gem of peri and menopause waiting to surprise us and a hot issue discussed regularly over in our Community.

Welcome to The Hormone Hub Podcast where today we're looking at why it can feel that we're about to go bald at the same time hair is reappearing randomly on our face.

There's usually an underlying reason (or two), so in this episode we look at the causes - from hormonal imbalances and stress, thyroid and auto immune conditions, nutrient deficiencies and even long term medications which can be the culprit.

What's a girl to do?

I'm here to share some practical advice on how to manage these changes. We’ll discuss the importance of diet, specific nutrients like zinc and iron, and the role they play in hair health.

It's about more than quick fixes; it's about understanding and adapting to your body's needs during perimenopause. I'll share strategies for supporting your thyroid, managing stress, and optimising your nutrient levels for overall health.

Remember, you're not alone on this journey. Knowledge is power, and I'm here to help you regain the confidence that comes with taking back control of your health.

I hope you enjoy this episode!
