31m | Oct 15, 2025

Noticing more shedding, thinning, or bald spots? You’re not alone—and it’s not just “getting older.”

In this eye-opening episode of Fox After 40, we break down the real causes of hair loss in women over 40, from hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause to stress, nutrition, and styling habits. We explore the latest treatments, dermatologist-approved solutions, and how to protect your hair—and your confidence—as you age.

 

In this episode, we explore:

  • The most common causes of hair thinning in midlife women
  • How menopause and hormone shifts affect your scalp and hair
  • The difference between shedding, alopecia, and stress-related loss
  • What tests and evaluations to request from your dermatologist
  • The role of vitamin deficiencies like iron, B12, and D in hair health
  • Do treatments like minoxidil, PRP, or rosemary oil really work?
  • Protective styles, heat, and chemical damage—what to stop now
  • How to emotionally cope with hair loss and reclaim your confidence
  • When to stop guessing and see a hair loss specialist
  • Whether you’re seeing the first signs of thinning or have struggled with hair loss for years, this conversation will help you understand what’s happening—and how to fight back with knowledge and compassion.
