I have hair thinning that started with menopause. what are my option for treating?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thinning hair: This may be genetic, age related with hormonal changes or can be a manifestation of thyroid disease. A dermatologist can determine whether hair loss is permanent or temporary and can order the thyroid or any other pertinent tests. If no pathology, my advice is to visit a skilled beautician for the best advice about your hair and it's care.
