What You Need to Know

Hair fall in women is a deeply personal concern that goes beyond aesthetics, often affecting confidence and emotional well-being. Unlike male pattern baldness, female hair loss presents differently, typically manifesting as diffuse thinning across the scalp rather than a receding hairline. At SkinEdge Clinic in Patiala, Dr. Yuvika Mittal understands the unique hormonal, nutritional, and lifestyle factors that contribute to hair loss in women and provides compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each patient.

Female hair loss can stem from a wide range of causes including hormonal imbalances related to PCOS, thyroid disorders, menopause, or postpartum changes. Nutritional deficiencies, particularly of iron and vitamin D, are extremely common among Indian women and are often overlooked contributors to excessive shedding. Chronic stress, crash dieting, and certain medical conditions can also trigger telogen effluvium, a temporary but alarming form of widespread hair fall. Identifying the root cause is the critical first step in effective treatment.

At SkinEdge, every female hair loss patient undergoes a comprehensive evaluation that includes a detailed medical history, scalp examination using trichoscopy, and targeted blood investigations to identify hormonal or nutritional imbalances. Based on the findings, Dr. Yuvika Mittal creates a personalized treatment protocol that may combine medical therapy, nutritional supplementation, PRP or GFC injections, and topical treatments. This multi-pronged approach addresses the underlying cause while simultaneously stimulating hair regrowth, giving women visible, lasting results.

Common Causes

1

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) causing elevated androgens that miniaturize hair follicles

2

Thyroid dysfunction, both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, disrupting the hair growth cycle

3

Iron deficiency anaemia, one of the most common causes of hair fall in Indian women

4

Postpartum hormonal shifts triggering sudden, excessive shedding three to six months after delivery

5

Menopausal hormone decline leading to gradual thinning across the crown and parting line

6

Chronic crash dieting and restrictive eating patterns depriving follicles of essential nutrients

7

Traction alopecia from prolonged use of tight ponytails, braids, or heavy hair extensions

8

Autoimmune conditions such as alopecia areata or lupus-related hair loss
