Hair fall in women is more common than you think-and it can be emotionally distressing. While it’s normal to shed 50–100 hairs a day, excessive hair loss can point to deeper issues. Some of the most common causes include hormonal imbalances (like PCOS or thyroid disorders), stress, nutritional deficiencies (especially iron, Vitamin D, and protein), post-pregnancy changes, and lifestyle factors such as poor diet or heat styling.
One of the biggest culprits today is telogen effluvium, a condition where stress or illness causes hair to enter a shedding phase prematurely. Additionally, genetics and underlying scalp conditions like dandruff or fungal infections can also lead to persistent thinning.
Effective solutions begin with a proper diagnosis. At RuVan, we start with a scalp analysis and blood work if needed. Treatment options include PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) therapy, mesotherapy, hair growth serums, and supplements. For long-term management, lifestyle adjustments-like eating a protein-rich diet, reducing heat exposure, and managing stress-are equally important.
