During menopause, the body becomes even more susceptible to DHT imbalances when left without the protective properties of estrogen.

Because there are unique stressors associated with menopause, hair follicles can shift from a growth state to a rest state, which may cause the follicle to prematurely stop growing.5

How does menopause affect hair growth?
How does menopause affect hair growth?
As menopause begins, estrogen and progesterone decline rapidly. Testosterone also declines, but at a much slower rate. The resulting testosterone dominance contributes to overall thinning hair, a widening part, receding hairline, and even unwanted facial hair growth. It’s also found that in menopause, women’s stress hormones increase, antioxidant stores decline, and metabolism and nutritional needs change. Nutrafol Women’s Balance targets these root causes too.
