Hair loss & Menopause
Why does hair loss occur during the menopausal transition?
Hair loss during the menopausal years affects many women and men: The hair becomes thinner and finer and falls out more frequently than before. The causes are usually hormonal changes, often combined with stress, lack of sleep, a lack of nutrients, or hereditary predisposition. Here you will learn why hair begins to thin during this life phase, what nutrition and lifestyle can contribute to this, and how we at Bio Kurhotel moor&mehr can support you Bad Kohlgrub with moor, Hildegard herbs, and personal advice.
Overview
Darker hair with age
Dense, healthy hair – who doesn’t want that? After all, hair splendor is seen as a symbol of health, youth, and beauty. Unfortunately, in many cases, the „loss“ of hair becomes visible over the course of life. In the menopausal years, increasing levels of testosterone further exacerbate hair loss. Vital substances can no longer be utilized as effectively. The thyroid gland is not in balance. Testosterone increasingly affects hair loss. The hair becomes thinner and finer, the hairstyle no longer holds as well as usual. This often becomes apparent to men – they discover hidden areas. However, do not be discouraged! Beautiful hair is still possible even in the menopausal years!
Menopause, hair loss & acidosis
Stress, environmental toxins or a lack of nutrients to name just a few are responsible when hair loss occurs. The body becomes acidic. The organism first attacks the hair root. This is the fastest way to do it. It withdraws its own mineral substances. In this way it neutralizes excess acids. The hair root is no longer sufficiently supplied with nutrients. And new hair can no longer grow. Its old hair looks tired and dull. It falls out. But here too: This does not have to be the case. You can actively do something about hair loss during the perimenopausal years.
Hair loss & Menopause: Nutrition
Even if what you consume isn’t the sole cause of hair loss during the menopause, an unbalanced and nutrient-poor diet still contributes to it. Your motto should be: Only the best! „Feed“ your hair and therefore your entire body. Pay attention to what you eat. That acid and base are in balance. Therefore, rely on nutrient-rich foods. This is how you replenish your vital reserves naturally.
Hair loss in men during the menopausal transition
When hair falls out more frequently during the perimenopausal period, this can have various reasons. Hereditary hair loss is now more common. But certain life circumstances also reduce hair density during this phase. This is known as diffuse hair loss. You know it yourself: Not enough sleep, increased stress, poor nutrition or a lack of essential nutrients are no longer simply something that can be ignored. Not only your body, but also your hair reacts and becomes thinner.
Hair loss in the perimenopausal years in women
Your hormones are at play here too. This also affects your hair. Usually, you lose about 100 hairs per day. The hair follicle reacts very sensitively to this. The estrogen level decreases. Also, too little minerals contribute to your shiny hair now appearing brittle or dry.

Hair grows only about one centimeter per month, and the hair cycle takes months. Therefore, initial improvements are often not seen until three to six months have passed. Patience and consistent treatment of the underlying causes are important. Our Menopause Kur can provide a boost, but it does not replace a long-term change in daily routine.
