The cause determines the treatment
Hair loss is a symptom, not a diagnosis. The most common causes we see in our practice:
- Oestrogen deficiency – during and after the menopause, after stopping the pill or after giving birth
- Androgen excess – for example in PCOS: a thinning parting combined with increased body hair
- Thyroid disorders – both underactive and overactive, see thyroid and Hashimoto's
- Deficiencies – above all iron (ferritin), zinc, vitamin D and biotin
- burdens, medication, stress and illnesses as further triggers
How we proceed
- Conversation: since when, in what pattern, what has changed – medication, childbirth, the pill, weight, stress?
- Diagnostics: a complete hormone status (oestrogens, androgens, thyroid) plus a micronutrient profile. On request, bioresonance testing complements the search for burdens.
- Treating the cause: balancing the hormones, specifically replenishing deficiencies, adjusting the thyroid correctly – accompanied by naturopathic support for the scalp and metabolism.
Hair responds slowly: three to six months usually lie between treating the cause and a visible result. In return, treating the cause is more sustainable than any special shampoo.
For men too
In men with diffuse hair loss it is also worth looking at hormones, thyroid and micronutrients – the alopecia treatment in our practice is open to women and men alike.
