What Your Thinning Hair Is Trying
to Tell You
PODCAST SUMMARY
Discovering clumps of hair in your shower drain or on your pillow can be genuinely distressing, especially when you’re already navigating the complex terrain of perimenopause. In my clinic, I’ve guided countless women through this common yet often overlooked symptom of hormonal transition.
Hair loss during perimenopause isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s a powerful signal from your body that something needs attention. The fascinating reality is that as oestrogen and progesterone decline, we experience relative androgen excess where these shifting ratios trigger both thinning scalp hair and unwanted facial hair growth. But hormones are just one piece of this complex puzzle. Thyroid dysfunction, nutrient deficiencies (particularly iron and zinc), chronic stress, and insulin resistance all contribute to the perfect storm that leaves many women watching helplessly as their once-vibrant locks thin and fade.
What truly excites me is how responsive hair loss is to the right interventions. Through targeted testing, personalised nutrition, stress management techniques, and strategic supplementation, the vast majority of my clients regain not just their hair, but their confidence. While patience is essential—it typically takes six months to see significant regrowth—the comprehensive approach I outline provides a roadmap for addressing not just your hair concerns, but your overall hormonal health during this transition. Whether you’re noticing subtle thinning or significant loss, this episode delivers practical, evidence-based solutions to help you maintain luscious hair throughout perimenopause and beyond.
