What impact does menopause have on hair health?

During menopause, many women may experience changes in their hair due to declining levels of estrogen and progesterone. Common changes include thinning hair, increased dryness, and brittleness. Some women may also notice hair loss or changes in hair texture. To care for hair during menopause, women can use gentle shampoos, moisturizing conditioners, and consider supplements that support hair health, like biotin or omega-3 fatty acids. Regular trimming and a healthy diet rich in vitamins can further promote hair vitality. If hair issues persist, consulting a GP or dermatologist can provide tailored advice.
